Franz discovered his love for running in 2018 when he entered the local Ultra-Marathon, and he’s not looked back since!
Having been a brand ambassador for several years before joining the brand full time showed that Franz loves the products!
“I am an advocate for running and the power it has to make us feel good, both physically and mentally. It doesn’t matter how fast or how far you go, it’s matter that you ran at all!”
Leading our HOKA Run Club from our Berlin HOKA Store store has been a dream come true for him, having long been a fan of the brand. His favourite shoes (if he had to choose) are the Mafate 5, Clifton 10 and Challenger 8.
“The run club is a great way of embodying the Fly Human Fly spirit here at HOKA. Every week we are lucky enough to welcome fans and newcomers alike to try on our shoes, meet like-minded people and even some of our elite athletes! If you’re nervous, you don’t need to be, we’re a friendly, welcoming group who always run together!”
And when he’s not leading our run club he can be found on the trails around his home town in the Saxon Switzerland.
