0:20 Jubiläumsfolge mit Philipp Pflieger
// ENGLISH
In this anniversary episode, we talk with Philipp Pflieger about his journey from track and road running to trail running, and look back at his career as a professional marathon runner and Olympian. We also discuss his first trail race (INFINITE TRAILS), his experiences in alpine terrain, and the differences between marathons, trails, and ultra-distances. Furthermore, we cover his perspective on the Olympics and the question of how trail running could fit into the Olympic program without losing its identity. We shed light on his time in Kenya, the running culture there, the conditions in Iten, and the topic of doping. Finally, we learn more about his projects outside of sports, including his Kenya-themed coffee and his support for an NGO. We discover how he integrates movement into his family life and why the joy of sport is more important to him than pure performance goals.
