"Why not?"
- my usual answer to the question "Why?"
Who I am
I am 39 years old, work as an accountant in a trading company and have been a passionate CrossFitter since 2018.
During this journey I learned that big challenges sometimes just need a small first step to get the ball rolling.
I've never embarked on such an adventure before. I am neither an adrenaline junkie nor an ultra-marathon runner, nor anything like that; I actually consider myself a completely normal, average guy.
My "advantage": I'm stubborn. When I set my mind to something, I see it through. For example, I was supposed to participate in the World's Toughest Row in 2024 as part of a four-person team, but several members unexpectedly dropped out of the team shortly before the race started. So I decided to simply do it on my own.
