Will you be taking part in the IRONMAN® SWITZERLAND on July 7, 2024 in Thun or would you like to get a taste of IRONMAN® as a triathlete?
So that athletes can prepare for the competition in the best possible way, the Deltapark Vitalresort offers training days together with the successful IRONMAN® athlete and coach Bernhard Krummenacher. The primary aim is to get to know the IRONMAN® triathlon courses. The athletes get to know all sections of the course under professional and local guidance. Tips and tricks are taught and challenging sections of the course are examined and memorized.
As the Official IRONMAN® Race Hotel, the Deltapark Vitalresort is located right in the middle of the competition area. The original bike course with 2000 meters of elevation gain and tricky descents, as well as the run course along Lake Thun, can be explored directly from the hotel grounds. If the water temperatures of Lake Thun allow it*, athletes can even "set sail" in their wetsuits directly in front of the Vitalresort and gain their first experience on the IRONMAN® swim course. After an intensive day of training, relaxation is a must. The Deltaspa offers participants an optimal regeneration oasis on four floors with an indoor saltwater pool, outdoor freshwater pool, various saunas and steam baths.
*Business & Sports runs a temperature measuring station in Lake Thun. The water temperature at a depth of 30cm can be found here .
Over the past almost 50 years, Bernhard has experienced professional and sporting highs and has gained in-depth theoretical and practical experience as a coach, athlete, trainer, lecturer, and entrepreneur. Bernhard is a 19-time IRONMAN® finisher with several top 10 placings. He also participates in other sporting competitions every year (cross-country skiing, Gigathlon, etc.).
A highlight in his IRONMAN® career was his participation in the IRONMAN® final in Hawaii in the fall of 2022. Apart from extreme sporting achievements, Bernhard is a passionate mountaineer, mountain biker and kayaker.
"Behind my CV is a lot of hard work and resilience, as well as a pinch of luck. I am driven by my core values, which I also see sustainability, courage, perseverance and fairness as central to my coaching".
