Iris has always felt most at home in nature. Inspired by her father’s enthusiasm, she has always enjoyed skiing, mountain biking, hiking, and running in the beautiful Bohemian Forest. Even today, you can still find her there almost every weekend, summer and winter, whatever the weather.
It was only later that she discovered her interest in athletics, water sports, and ball sports, which was the deciding factor in her decision to attend Sport BORG in Linz. The wide range of sports on offer there further strengthened Iris’ enthusiasm for sports.
Iris then lived in New York State for over six years (working and studying) before returning to Austria, where she discovered triathlon. Her experience abroad had a positive impact on all areas of her life. Above all, qualities such as perseverance, assertiveness, and the willpower to pursue her own goals and dreams have a lasting influence on her work as a coach, but also as an athlete.
Iris completed her first triathlon in 2016 and has been enthusiastic about this varied sport ever since. It has become an important part of her life and she loves enjoying nature while swimming, cycling, or running. Thanks to Coach Martin’s infectious enthusiasm, she soon realized that she too wanted to pass on her passion for the sport to others. Since 2017, she has been working with head coach Martin, leading swimming, running, and athletic training for groups and clubs, as well as personal training in strength and athletics. In addition, she coaches ambitious fitness athletes, runners, and triathletes, accompanying them on their way to achieving their athletic goals.
