Athlete: Stef Economides
How long have you been in Triathlon: On and off since the late 90s. I dabbled really and had a long period away before deciding I needed to do an Ironman before I got too old!
What is your back ground: It would be true to say that I wasn’t brought up in a sporty household and I didn’t really appreciate what it could do for me until I started running in my early 30s.
Greatest achievement outside Triathlon: Renovating my 300 year old cottage (only took 9 years!)
Why do you do Triathlon: It continues to be a brilliant challenge, helps keeps you fit and young (looking at least!), has fantastic camaraderie and the social scene here in Dubai is fantastic.
What attracted you to F4L: Experienced, qualified and knowledgeable coaching with an emphasis on quality over quantity.
What are your targets: If I can stay fit and healthy, I’d like to continue to race 70.3 and improve enough to qualify for the World Champs in 2 years (partly to have an excuse to go to NZ and partly to prove that SA wasn’t a fluke!)
Sum up F4L (in one line!): I’ve used F4L for 6 years now and they will always get you to the start line in the best possible shape, guaranteed.
