Louis - Time to focus on triathlon races.
Louis Stauffer, has been training with us for two years doing our running, sports, games programme, and lately has been improving in his 2.4km timing and 5km timing as well. Just like his father, Christian Stauffer, Louis is very interested in triathlon. In our programme, he has been a very disciplined athlete, always willing and keen to learn new things.
Recently, he has taken part in the Singapore International Triathlon last weekend and has done well in the race.
I decided to have an interview done on him as we would like to see how our running programme has helped Louis to help his triathlon races.
