3 questions for Linus
How did you get into biathlon?
Winter sports are very popular in my home town of Willingen, which is why I started cross-country skiing at an early age and then later switched to biathlon. Many people played a role in this, but especially my sister, with whom I practised the sport for several years.
What motivates you?
I draw my motivation from the idea that my activities should pursue a specific goal and that I want to invest time in what makes me happy. That counts for me both in sport and in my private life.
How important is sustainability to you?
Sustainability is a big and, above all, important issue. That's why I like to pay attention to the quality and origin of my everyday products, such as food, or long-term investments such as furnishing my home.
