He shared the heart-stopping incident on his Instagram account, narrating, "Sudden brakes en route to Norseman: A falling star, a crack, and the training debate concludes before it even commenced."
Thorsten's post is not just words, but also a captivating video that offers a glimpse into his everyday life. The footage begins with him cycling up a daunting incline, followed by an abrupt cut to a distant landscape – land that soon reveals Thorsten lying injured on the ground. Another cut-in shows him casually sipping tea while donning a sling on his left arm.

Following the untimely wrist fracture, Thorsten is now preparing for emergency surgery. Afterward, he must focus on healing to return to training for the Norseman, which is scheduled for August 2nd. However, he emphasizes that his top priority is regaining his health before anything else.
As a result of his injury, Thorsten has been compelled to cancel his reading event planned for March 13th in Kiel. He announced this disappointing news on his Instagram story. He promised his fans in the captivating city of Schleswig-Holstein that a makeup date will be scheduled for April 17th. Contrary to this, the planned event in Hamburg on March 27th will continue as scheduled.
Thorsten is currently traveling the country on a book tour promoting his latest work, “With Every Fiber.” This riveting memoir narrates his exhilarating journey to his first Ironman race in Hawaii. Prior to this, he authored another book titled “News from Ironman,” delving into his lifelong passion for triathlon.
