"Success is no accident. It is hard work, perseverance, learning, sacrifice, and most of all, love of what you are doing."
As a coach and athlete, I’ve had a great experience with Etixx products, especially their hydration and energy gels. The Etixx Energy Gel is excellent for maintaining energy during long sessions and races. It’s easy to digest and provides a steady release of energy without the crash, which is crucial for endurance sports. I’ve also found their Electrolyte Tablets effective for maintaining hydration and preventing cramps, especially in hotter conditions. Their products are reliable and well-formulated for high-performance athletes.
I have achieved multiple podium finishes in high-level competitions, including the European Cup and the World Cup.

I started running at the age of 41, ran my first marathon at 43 and gradually evolved into an ultrarunner. I am the only Belgian woman to have finished the Spartathlon ultrarace (246 km) twice, holding the Belgian female's course record. My achievements also include becoming the female Belgian champion in the 100 km race and completing the grueling Marathon des Sables. In 2024, I set out to break the world record for consecutive marathons, running 366 marathons in 366 days in support of BIG against Breastcancer. Through extreme weather, injuries, and relentless challenges, I never gave up, fueled by Etixx sports nutrition and the determination and support of my husband Bruno, friends, and sponsors. With an unbreakable spirit and a heart for charity, I'm planning to continue to inspire other people on my journey of resilience and dedication.

However, I am a natural athlete and have already started pursuing new challenges, such as playing tennis, completing my first half marathon, and participating in my first sprint triathlons.
