Athletics (All-Around)

I am an athlete who is not easily satisfied with a performance. I always want to do better than the previous race and keep improving my personal records. I like to learn quickly. Sometimes I try to imitate or learn a technique by watching other athletes. I am very motivated during training and I don't give up easily, but sometimes I dare to let my head hang down when things don't go as I had hoped. I am always open to humour and jokes on and off the slopes.

Athletics (10km, Half Marathon, Marathon)

I am a 25-year-old long-distance runner and a member of the Runners' Lab Athletics Team. For me, running is not only a sport but also a passion and especially a lifestyle. I will always do everything to push my limits and make all my dreams come true! My ultimate goal is to participate in the Olympic Games at the marathon. In addition to my athlete career, I also have a master's degree in "Business Engineering" in 2021.

Athletics (5000m and 10000m)

I am a distance runner of 28 years old and I live in Kapelle-op-den-Bos. I started taking part in international championships at the age of 22, and the Olympic Games in Tokyo were the biggest event I ever had the privilege of taking part in. Until last year, I was still studying for my bachelor's degree in architecture at the LUCA school of arts in Brussels. Since this year, I have been practising my sport professionally under contract at Topsport Belgian Defence. I dream of achieving a top 10 place at a World Championship or Olympic Games.
