Athlete Comments & Reviews
“I compete to be healthy, inspired by the older athletes”
“The first year I competed in the Swiss Masters Athletics, the guys that were 60 – 65 – 70 years old, they were my inspiration. I switched my mind to say: I still compete but I want to be healthy the rest of my life. They are the models.”
“Life is all about learning and trying new things!”
“There’s never a moment to stop to learn. I still learn fron myself. It’s never too late to start to do something.”
“Physical activity is a must, I’m back after 8 years”
“For me the most important is that you stay fit. I didn’t do any sport after giving birth for 8 years. Staying active improves the quality of life.”
