Kim Colpaert
I'm always looking to challenge myself and I constantly want to push my own boundaries and break my own records. Being involved in sport is a must and gives you a healthy mind. As an Etixx ambassador, I try to get that message across and encourage people to start exercising. The Etixx products provide that extra boost to deal with training sessions and to help get my body in top condition and maintain it.

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.
