8TO8 by FLAG x INCEPT

Friday 03 April 2026

8h at 20h

JE PARTICIPE

8TO8 remains a relay ergathlon (SkiErg, BikeErg, RowErg), but we've innovated the event format with :

Teams of 3
12 waves of 45 minutes of effort with 15 minutes of recovery (instead of the 1h50 waves of previous editions)
4 types of effort, with varying work intervals: endurance, progressive, sprint, and time trial.
And you can still register in the OPEN or PRO category.

SCORING SYSTEMS

The distance covered on the ergometer in each wave = the score.

We have implemented bonuses that allow each team to increase their score, thanks to a tiered system.

These tiers vary between the OPEN and PRO categories.

When did you start coaching?
I began personal coaching in 2016, after several years in communications and marketing. I started with private coaching and then began group classes, both outdoors and in the gym, shortly after.

What motivated you to become a coach?
Fitness literally changed my physical appearance and my mindset, and I wanted to pass it on and share it in turn. I still feel so proud when I see my clients’ progress.

What are your areas of expertise?
I have several certifications under my belt, but I’d say strength training with an Olympic barbell, kettlebells, and suspension straps (TRX), plus cardio work with running and the ergometers (BikeErg, SkiErg, RowErg).

What disciplines do you practice personally?
I’ve always combined strength training with running. I’ve run four marathons and quite a few half-marathons, and I’ve never stopped training in the gym alongside. More recently, I’ve expanded my practice by taking part in eight HYROX races and my first Gravelman in 2023 (cycling).

What quote motivates you to excel?
“Lead by example.”

Which personality (or athlete) inspires you?
Michael Jordan for his discipline and resilience, and Serena Williams for the strong woman she represents. And many entrepreneurs in sports and beyond who motivate me every day.

When did you start coaching?
I started coaching in 2021, after a career change.

What motivated you to become a coach?
Being able to truly impact people’s lives through sport, drawing on my own experience and showing them how sport can positively change our lives.

What are your areas of expertise?
I come from a strength and conditioning background, so training plans dedicated to running and athletic development particularly interest me.

What disciplines do you practice personally?
Running, trail running, swimming—and rugby for over 10 years. A typical training week looks like this: three strength sessions (including one with high-intensity work), one running session, and another sport such as swimming when possible!

What quote motivates you to push yourself?
“Focus on what you can control.”

Which personality (or athlete) inspires you?
Kobe Bryant for discipline, Bixente Lizarazu for his ability to reinvent himself as an athlete after already reaching the top, and Mathieu Blanchard for mental strength and simplicity.

When did you start coaching?
I started coaching in 2024. I was trained at FLAG, where I took my first steps in this profession. Today, I’m proud to be identified with it and to uphold its values.

What motivated you to become a coach?
My passion for sport, of course—but above all, a desire to share and motivate with kindness, adaptability, patience, and professionalism. I find great satisfaction in helping my athletes reach their goals and witnessing their progress.

What are your areas of expertise?
Mainly strength training, hybrid training such as HYROX, and kettlebell work.

What disciplines do you practice personally?
I’m a big fan of hybrid training. My goal is to be as well-rounded as possible, so my training is very varied. I’d rather be good at many disciplines than excel in just one. It’s not easy to develop, but it’s essential in my eyes.

What quote motivates you to excel?
“Don’t limit your challenges, challenge your limits.”

Which personality (or athlete) inspires you?
My mother inspires me the most. She has always embodied strength, resilience, and courage. She has always kept her head high and moved forward with determination. Watching her taught me to never give up, to stay strong, and to persevere. She’s my daily role model and the source of my motivation.

I practice CrossFit, so I touch on many things: weightlifting, running, gymnastics, and strength training.

It’s not a quote, but I tell myself, “I can do it.”

Simone Biles, for her story and resilience.
