Retrospect and Prospect

The hunt for the legend After the competition in Mexico, I conclude the first 20 years long-distance triathlon. I never expect that I can finish such competitions and can win.In 1997, I played my first ultra (triple) and then set a Swiss record in Le Fontanil.Now 2016 I played a triple again and was able to set up a track record. In recent years, I saw many athletes, winners, losers, world champion and was at world record race.Few people stayed true to the sport for a long time and many were forgotten again.Only one of these many has set a brand that seems almost unattainable. The Frenchman Guy Rossi has gotten most of the Ultras and rightly applies as a living legend.His record numbers I will try to try in the next 20 years and try to remove each individual record.

So far, I definitely have more triple Irons caught than he. Recently, an article on this subject appeared at www.migrosmagazin.ch/menchen/Portraet/Artikel/Ahr-der-jagd-nach-der- legend
