We about us Results Photos Videos Press Race map Our Training Say NO
Running over the red carpet before crossing the finish line and the cheering of the crowd, these are some of the moments in which all sorrows and troubles are forgotten. The moment in which we know It’s Done! …To enjoy these moments, we train every day – often twice a day. Quadrathlon (swimming, cycling, kayaking and running), Multisports and Adventure Racing are our passion – we simply love it.
We are Lisa (*23.04.1991, Langenfeld, née Hirschfelder) and Stefan Teichert (*23.04.1980, Suhl), we live together in Eppelheim near Heidelberg. The Metropolregion Rhein-Neckar and our Club offer an ideal training infra-structure (WSC Heidelberg) and additionally, it’s beautiful in the surroundings of our Odenwald 😉
MULTI originally stems from a Latin term meaning much, multiple, numerous – multisports is what we do. We have always been allrounder, not at all satisfied with only one single discipline:
Lisa started with athletics (javelin, discus, hurdles, pole vault …), wakeboarding and competitive swimming, she did acrobatics, gymnastics and climbing, played handball and learned snowboarding. There’s probably no sport she’s not capable of 😉 Stefan tried wrestling, basketball, cross-country skiing and lifesaving. We love every activity in which moving you body is required – except dancing: P
The „multi“-perspective applies as well to our professional orientation:
Lisa studied in addition to medicine at the same time sports and psychology at the University of Heidelberg and works now as a doctor at the ZI in Mannheim.
Stefan got his A-levels part-time while working as a nurse in the psychiatric ward. He then studied business administration and currently works at the Medical Faculty of Heidelberg as event manager. As you can see, web-design is another free-time activity. Boredom isn’t part of our vocabulary 😉
Probably you want to know, how we found the way to Quadrathlon!? Lisa finished her first Triathlon in 2000 with a „Holland-Radl“ (city-bike) including a wheel basket and backpedal brake. At the beginning of her „sports career“, she was rather untalented, but disciplined. Although she could do everything, she didn‘t excell in something particular.
Stefan helped as lifeguard in a triathlon-event in 1996 and decided to take part himself the next year. Said and done: one year later the tiger-coloured bike was waiting for him in the
transition zone. He nearly came last to the finish, but the virus „Multisport“ had infected him. In 2003 he then finished his first Quadrathlon, after having discoverd the challenge „kayak“. When we first met in 2011 during a swim-session in our club, Lisa was immediately enthusiastic about the idea of Quadrathlon.
We both think that endurance sports do not only challenge you physically, but also mentally. We would like to develop our personalities as human beings by, with and in accordance to our daily training. Through the years, you develop discipline, ambition and determination. Together we are an unbeatable team. If we really want something, then we can do that. The goal determines the way. Our greatest weaknesses are the recovery periods and a certain tendency to perfection. During the off-season … we enjoy the success of the season and like to do all sorts of other sports (except swimming, biking, running and kayaking).
