About

Dorian Coninx is a dedicated triathlete from Grenoble, France, where he has lived since birth. Deeply connected to his mountain surroundings, he enjoys all the outdoor activities the region has to offer. Beyond sport, Dorian also has a passion for cooking and loves discovering new cuisines during his travels. He trains within a group that he helped to establish, and the social side of training is especially meaningful to him — sharing the journey with others is a key part of what drives him.

His sporting journey began in swimming, which he practiced intensively from the age of 7 to 17. At 17, he transitioned into triathlon, where he quickly found his passion. That passion was heavily influenced by his parents, particularly his father, who introduced him to a variety of sports early on. Growing up in Grenoble — a hub for outdoor sports — only deepened his connection to athletics and the mountains.

What Dorian finds so special about triathlon is its diversity: the combination of three sports means constant variation and endless opportunities to improve in different areas. It’s a discipline that keeps him challenged and engaged.
When thinking about the future of his sport, Dorian hopes to see triathlon continue to grow in popularity and accessibility.

His biggest dream? Winning Olympic Gold.
