Adrián Nieto
I am Adrián Nieto, I started doing judo at school when I was 4 years old because my best friend did it too.
Over the years I began to combine it with soccer and trained twice a week for each sport until I gave up soccer at the age of 15 and started doing judo only.
At the age of 17, I entered the high performance center to finish my studies and be able to combine them with my training and there I have continued since then developing my training at the same time that I finished a degree in Social Integration.
I compete in the -66kg category
I train approximately 22 hours a week, Every day I do 2 training sessions of 2 and a half hours, always being a judo training and a physical one and we rest on Saturday afternoons and all Sundays.
My favorite product is the Pre work out red fruits because I really like its taste and it gives me an extra energy that I need to make a hard training when I am very tired and during long competitions
My best result last year was 9 in the world
I am trainning to qualify for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games

Roller skating, ice skating and cycling
I'm a 27yo sports fanatic and bioscience engineer. Whatever sport or task I'm performing, I will give it my all to be the best possible me. I'm really grateful that Etixx helps me to achieve this. I've grown up spending most of my free time on inline skates but my olympic dream has pushed me to switch asphalt for ice. Last winter I proudly represented Belgium at the Beijing Winter Olympics in speedskating.

Marathon
I am Simon Debognies, a professional distance runner with the Ministry of Defence and the Runners' Lab Athletics Team. I am currently specialising in the 5000 metres and the 10000 metres. In the longer term, I want to make the step to the marathon. The running bug has been with me since I was a child, and I caught it during my first school cross-country run in the park at the end of my street. Immediately afterwards, I joined the local athletics club and the starting shot was fired for a career as an athlete. Many worn-out running shoes later, I have Belgian and European medals in my pocket, as well as experience at international championships. Now, with a lot of passion and ambition, I am working towards my next goals.
