"What you don't choose you have chosen"

My favourite Etixx products

My favorite products are without a doubt the Nutritional Energy Gel, Recovery Shake, and Isotonic Drink. The gels give me a quick and efficient energy boost exactly when I need it most during training or competition. After an intense effort, the recovery shakes help my body recharge and recover properly, preparing me for the next challenge. And the isotonic drinks? They keep me hydrated and balanced, even during the toughest workouts. Together, they provide the ideal support for top performance.

Gravel Cycling

I believe in consistancy in your work, and that's what rules myself as a person. Doing a little every day and not giving up seems very simple but sometimes holding onto that is already a lot, specially when things aren't looking well. However, I believe in sport as a passion, and visualize cycling as something that has to bring you joy regardless of the results. That's the key to keep pushing.

Athletics (All-Around)

I am an athlete who is not easily satisfied with a performance. I always want to do better than the previous race and keep improving my personal records. I like to learn quickly. Sometimes I try to imitate or learn a technique by watching other athletes. I am very motivated during training and I don't give up easily, but sometimes I dare to let my head hang down when things don't go as I had hoped. I am always open to humour and jokes on and off the slopes.

Triathlon

I used to be an elite triathlete. Raced many international races and loved to train very hard. In 2022 I got injured and we still can’t find the cure for my several bone fractures that appear every time i try to run. Even though I still can’t race, I keep trainning hard every day so that I can come back the day we find the origin of my health problem. I love my sport and I know I’ll make it somehow!
