I'm 26 years old and I'm a professionnal triathlete from Belgium racing in short distances. I'm also finishing my studies in physical education at Louvain la Neuve university. My goal for this year is to finish in the top 20 in the Wtcs ranking. I'm also trying to qualify for the Olympic Games in Paris in July.

My favourite Etixx products

I really like the Double Carb Energy Gel PRO LINE as I use them a lot during my trainings. Also the Isotonic watermelon is the product that I use the most. The Recovery Shake PRO LINE Chocolate is also one of my favourite products and I can use it almost everyday because it taste really good and it's really efficient.

My personal records

29'17'' in the 10km run

My #GiveItYourAll moment in 2024

Margo Degraef

Table tennis

I am a motivated person who likes to keep busy, you can usually find me with a full diary and a smile on my face. I became an ambassador for Etixx this year, but I have been using the products for much longer. I often suffer from energy dips and I have found the solution to this in Etixx’s products, including the Sport Gummies and the Energy Sport Bars. But, looking forward to the Recovery products afterwards can also increase motivation during training. The Etixx ambassadors team is a great group and I am proud to be a part of it!

Simon Debognies

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.
