10 Questions with Nikola Tosic

3847978692_277ef04aa1

For starters, and the reader’s benefit, write a short paragraph about yourself:

Born in 1977 in Belgrade. Grew up in Lagos, lived in Serbia, USA, Italia, South Africa and a bit in France. I love internet and work with online content for living. I enjoy doing sports and art (same stuff). I love good food. I like living close to my parents and have been together with Martina, my girlfriend, for eleven years.

[Note from Conrad: Nikola is The Master, The Brains and The Teacher behind TriathlonTeam.org. Before I met him I could only read emails and attach photos.  Nikola started putting the team together about 2 years ago.  Dan Hugo was 1st, who introduced me (over a great seafood linguine on the Cape Town ocean front) and from there on the team grew quickly to 8 guys. We are still looking for a worthy girl blogger… (send applications here)

Nikola has helped me with brand building, logo design, race kit design, technically correct blogging and so much more. We also share a mutual love for good food and coffee. All our brain storming meetings go hand in hand with culinary delight.]

How you feel about your season so far?

Six years ago I started with 30kg overweight and somehow managed to finish Ironman in a decent time in my fifth season. This, my sixth season, is a complete failure when it comes to results. I am fat lazy and stupid. But I have managed to spend great time training in Stellenbosch, Greece, Switzerland and I still have Croatia and few nice places left. I have met really cool people and had a lot of fun. So from numbers side its shit, from emotional side it could be the most dynamic and interesting season ever. Since results mean very little to me it is a great season.

Nikola Tosic- The Serb behind the blogging

wheredoescscomefrom.jpg

Here is a screen shot of Nikola Tosic, (on the right) “Cooling or dieing” and the Caveman blog he made. I posted the screen shot because I couldn’t figure out how to get the pic of him being cool (or dieing?). It turns out to be quite an interesting touch, I think. Sort of “a look into the Caveman’s desktop.” Notice the “Canadian visa South African” in the Google search box.

Nikola  has taught me everything I know about blogging. Ok, its not much. How about “Nikola  can teach me everything I ever want to know about blogging!”

He started and runs Nekada triathlon team which is basically a few hand selected triathletes (including Dan Hugo) from around the world, teaching us to how to blog, build brands and use the internet to optimize athletes’ exposure on the World Wide Web.

Nikola races Ironman, spends a few months in South Africa every year to escape the Serbian winter.

A seriously interesting character, (see tosic.com or any of his other 15 websites) he says it like it is, writes poetry, thinks outside of the box, likes art, design and especially arguing…
