“There’s such an amazing atmosphere and spirit, as well as the competition, which is brilliant and that’s why I would encourage everyone to compete in events like this.”

“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.”

“You play sport and are a tourist at the same time!”

“Being part of the Games allows you to be a tourist as well and being part of everything that is going on in the area.”
