Giving a speech about triathlon - Utahloy Sports Banquet

Thursday evening I was invited to give a speech about triathlon at Utahloy International School´s sports banquet.

The event took place at China Hotel with all the sports students, their families and school staff attending.

After giving a short introduction to what triathlons is, what gear you need, how you train etc. there was a short Q&A and I was presented with a book and a bottle of wine - happy to have said yes! Always healthy to take up new challenges.

The best thing about the event was that it made me reflect on WHY I invest so many hours of training, so much money on gear and races and so much energy thinking of and talking about it. And the answer I ended up with is actually quite simple - triathlon has become a huge part of my identity. It defines me a person. It creates structure in my everyday life. It challenges me. It generates energy. It keeps me fit. It keeps me happy!

... and it continues opening up doors to new adventures!
