Focus is her superpower

Lea Stettler proves that a busy schedule is no obstacle to big goals. The Swiss athlete works full-time in auditing and pursues ambitious triathlon goals on the side. About four years ago, she made the transition from running and cycling to triathlon; thanks to Powerbar, she competed in her first long-distance race at Challenge Roth. Since then, her career has taken off: At Challenge Samorin (2024), she won her age group and finished second overall; in 2026, she placed third overall at both Challenge Sanremo and Challenge Almere-Amsterdam. There, she broke the ten-hour mark for the first time.

Next Goal: Sub 9:30

Work, training, recovery—for Lea, every hour has to count. That requires clear priorities. She’s learned that a high training volume only works if it fits into her daily routine over the long term. She clears her head outdoors, preferably on long bike rides over Swiss Alpine passes. After breaking 10 hours in Almere (2026), her next dream is already set: a long-distance race under 9:30 hours. Above all, though, Lea’s priority is to stay healthy and never lose the joy of the process. And she wants to prove that competitive triathlon and a demanding job can go hand in hand.
