As a little child I didn´t like sport too much. But my wise parents signed me and my brothers in a rowing club in Otrokovice where I found out how beautiful sport can be. Later, I decided to change rowing for triathlon. I tried it for the first time when I was 16, for four years combined both – rowing and triathlon – and then finally decided for triathlon. At the age of 19, I got my first professional contract as an Olympic track racer and when I was 26, I got my first experience with the Ironman race. I was absolutely fascinated by it and since that moment I have been devoted only to it. Till now, I have taken part in more than 150 races (all of them as a professional, including 14 races in World Championship in Hawaii). In the Czech Republic and Slovakia I have never lost in these races. I also participate in some cycling and running contests.
