Fabio Spiteri

My name is Fabio and I am a passion-driven, full-time athlete and coach for Team Fabio.  I come from a track running background, but due to several injuries I switched to triathlons. As of writing this, I am in my 6th season and have competed in five Ironman races so far; Austria 2010, Lanzarote 2011, Austria 2012 ,  Sweden 2013 and 2014. My best result so far was in Sweden in a time of 9hrs 35 mins finishing 8th place in my category. 
My target is to qualify for Ironman World Championship – Kona and also placing top place in over 40 Europeans. I firmly believe that passion and discipline are everything in sport. Whatever obstacle you need to overcome, those two qualities are all you need. What pushes me to train and to race is a combination of factors, but it all starts with that little flame I have inside my heart !
