    WHO AM I AND WHY SO MUCH TRAINING:

    That is a question I get a lot. Especially because I'm probably not like most others, which I have no problem with either. I do what I love and I do it because I can.

    Especially from the young people I work with every day, there is a great wonder that I only work and train. That's what they hear, but I also spend time with my family and friends, and I enjoy the peace and joy it gives me.

    When I talk about my everyday life, which consists of between 25-62 hours of work and 12-25 hours of training, it seems a little busy. It is also a busy day at times, but it is absolutely fantastic as it gives me an incredible amount of energy.
     

    I have the most amazing family and friends. They are always there for me if I need it.
