Bert Tippi – your coach
Bert has enjoyed sport for as long as he can remember. Growing up in a small rural community, he often had to find things to do on his own. Bert tried many different sports and discovered skiing at the age of 10. He completed his master’s degree at the University of Tartu in 2014 and has spent the past 10 years working as a ski coach at CFC Sports Club. An enthusiastic competitor himself, Bert has completed nine Tartu Maraton races and numerous Estoloppet marathons. Last year, he also succeeded in taking second place in the marathon at the Estonian Championships (EMV). This year, he managed to bring his marathon personal best below two and a half hours. Bert says: I don’t live with sport—sport lives within me!
