🇬🇧 - Allan Léon : between racing and mentoring, a life of endurance

This episode is the English version of a conversation that was originally recorded in French. I’d like to thank Allan Léon for kindly agreeing to re-record this episode in English. You guessed it — today’s guest is Allan Léon, who has combined his two passions — running and horses — to build a remarkable career in endurance. Today, he is a rider, trainer, breeder, selector, and educator, involved at every level of the sport. In this episode, we talked about the early stages of his journey, his partnership with Spirit de Crouz — a story marked by many great moments, including the 2018 FEI World Equestrian Games in Tryon. Allan also shares his experience as an international educator, particularly through the FEI Solidarity programme, which has recently taken him to Southern Africa and the United Arab Emirates. We wrapped up the episode by discussing his current role as team selector for the Swiss national team. It’s a rich conversation that touches on every aspect of his professional journey — from top-level sport to the passing on of knowledge.
