I am Fleur, 23 years old, pole vaulter and physiotherapy student. I have been on the athletics track since I was 6 years old. At 15, I specialised in pole vaulting. Sport is my hobby and my passion. I am a competitive animal, love to push my physical limits and I am driven to reach my goals. Besides the athletics track, you can also find me among my school books, on the racing bike or in a cosy coffee bar. Etixx products support me to perform optimally during busy training and competition periods and thus further pursue my goals.

I have been doing top-class sport for 10 years and have been using Etixx products for a long time, it is an ideal support for my body. Both before and during competitions or training sessions, but I also use the products afterwards. This gives my body enough chance to perform and recover. Moreover, it is very pleasant because the flavours are top notch!

I always try to do my best in sports but studying as well. I love to study and learn new things at university. About my sports facet, I think that i’m very constant and hardworking, also quite perfectionist. I’ve gone through a bad stage this last year which forced me to stop running for an indeterminate time but i’m trying to improve my cycling to race at the highest level. I’m so glad that I can combine sports and studying in my life, that makes me so happy.

After a (youth) career in athletics, I switched to the Belgian bobsleigh team. After a few years, I retrained from brakewoman to pilot, while also completing my Masters in physiotherapy. In 2015, I was employed part-time by Sport Flanders as pilot and I am now about to start my 10th bobsleigh season. Qualifying for the Olympic Winter Games in 2018 was an amazing feeling and made me dream of doing more in 2022, in Beijing. I now practise my sport full time, while also being a proud Godmother to my nephew, the apple of my eye. I am very proud to be part of the Etixx ambassadors team, a super-talented and motivated group of athletes and sports enthusiasts. Being supported by such a professional company with good-quality, clean products gives me an extra push to achieve my dream of a top result in Beijing 2022!
