Jonathan and his family (1 Sarah)

His name is Jonathan Puemi. He is 20 years old. He was born on April the 7th in 1991. His mother is from France and his father is from Cameroon.

He lives with his parents in Boudry. He has 3 brothers. He hasn't got any pets. His favourite styles of music are jazz and hip hop. He doesn't have a lot of spare time, because he hasn't got much time for that.

He was a nice student at school. When he doesn't train he plays basketball. He likes to go to out with his friends and have a good meal

He doesn't drink any alcohol. For breakfast he eats bread. There is a list of what he can or can't eat, but normally he can eat what he wants.

Athletics (2)

He started athletics when he was a child, at the "CEP", in Cortaillod and he did "le tour du canton".

He trains 3 hours a day (15 hours a week). On a normal morning he gets up at 5 o'clock, goes running and then he goes to school at 7 o'clock and in the evening he goes to bed at 21 o'clock. He does a lot of tests. He runs 400 m hurdles.

Before a competition, he is nervous. He goes to bed early when he has a competition the next day (he goes to bed at 11 pm and he gets up at 8-9 am). But afterwards, he has good memories. Just after a competition he goes to physical therapy and at night he goes to bed early.

He went to the Championships in Zürich. His last competition was in Bern, for the Swiss Team Championship, but he was hurt and a 400 meter race is long when you are hurt! He finished second at the Swiss championships in Basel but he was nervous, because there were 4 people with the same time.

His goal is to go to the Olympics games.

An anecdote (3)
        
His first coach was Mr Claude Meisterhans (he was a teacher at Cescole), who died 2 years ago, Jonathan said what he was a very good coach.
