Having
been
a
staunch
athlete
during
my
student
years,
I
found
myself
in
a
situation
where
work
and
several
moves
to
different
countries
had
somewhat
dulled
my
passion
for
sport.
Being
a
recreational
cyclist
(and,
I
must
admit,
a
bad
runner
and
a
terrible
swimmer)
I
became
interested
in
triathlon
shortly
after
moving
to
London.
It
was
then
that
I
contacted
several
coaches
and,
in
less
than
24
hours,
it
was
clear
to
me:
I
wanted
to
start
training
with
Uri.
From
the
first
call
we
had,
I
loved
the
passion
that
Uri
has
for
triathlon,
the
commitment
he
conveyed
to
me
with
the
athletes
he
trains,
and
his
enormous
dedication.
Now,
after
just
over
a
year
training
with
Uri,
I
can
firmly
say
that
it
was
a
great
decision.
Thanks
to
Uri,
I
have
gone
(in
just
12
months)
from
being
a
complete
novice
to
having
completed
several
Ironman
70.3,
a
full
Ironman
(being
10th
in
my
age
group)
and
several
Olympic
triathlons
(being
9th
overall
in
the
Challenge
Barcelona).
However,
the
most
important
thing
is
that
thanks
to
Uri
I
have
discovered
my
great
passion
for
triathlon,
and
I
have
developed
a
healthy
and
competitive
lifestyle
that
will
accompany
me
throughout
my
life.
I
want
to
take
the
opportunity
to
highlight
what,
from
my
point
of
view
as
an
athlete,
are
the
most
positive
points
of
working
with
Uri:
(1)
Updated
and
well-defined
work
zones
–
Uri
is
very
analytical
and
constantly
updates
work
zones
so
that
workouts
are
demanding
but
achievable
(2)
Plans
adjusted
to
objectives
–
training
is
perfectly
designed
to
achieve
maximum
performance
in
the
most
relevant
races
of
the
season
(3)
Constant
feedback
–
Uri
analyzes
the
training
in
detail,
listens
to
the
sensations
that
the
athlete
transmits
and
is
capable
of
giving
very
valuable
feedback
to
continue
improving
and
avoid
injuries
(4)
His
great
proximity
and
community
spirit
–
probably
the
most
important
thing,
Uri
is
a
great
guy,
very
close
to
his
athletes
and
who
loves
to
put
on
events
that
create
a
great
vibe
In
short,
Uri
is
a
great
coach,
a
great
person
and
my
number
1
recommendation
for
anyone
looking
for
a
coach.
