Niklas Kaul is one of the best decathletes. Here he talks about the art of the power nap, training with his parents and an internship that changed him before his Olympic start.
Mister KaulYou were recently on a TV talk show. When the other prominent guests were asked which disciplines were part of the decathlon, no one really knew. At some point someone asked: “Singing isn’t part of it, is it?” That was meant to be a joke, but it reflected the brief confusion of the group. What did you think?
It’s a shame, I thought. Not because I was disappointed by the guests in the group. The situation simply showed me that the decathlon does not yet receive the attention that I would like. And that we still have work to do to get the sport out of its niche.
