Professional Runner
I started using Polar products because of my team mate Fabienne Schlumpf. It’s easy for us to share our trainings with our coach. In my trainings I use the Polar Vantage with the H10 heart rate sensor and I’m happy with those products.

In the night before a competition I take a special teddybear to bed. I believe it makes my legs fast over night.
