My favourite Etixx products

My favorite products are without a doubt the Nutritional Energy Gel, Recovery Shake, and Isotonic Drink. The gels give me a quick and efficient energy boost exactly when I need it most during training or competition. After an intense effort, the recovery shakes help my body recharge and recover properly, preparing me for the next challenge. And the isotonic drinks? They keep me hydrated and balanced, even during the toughest workouts. Together, they provide the ideal support for top performance.

Dries Matthys

Triathlon

I am Dries Matthys or 'Matitser' aka 'The Cathedral of Wezemaal' and I extremely enjoy doing sports. I've been doing triathlon for 15 years and I hope to add at least another 15 years to that. And if it's up to me, like to race for another 15 years as a pro against the best triathletes in the world on the biggest stage in our sport: Ironman. Tip of the day: Life is more than just sport, don't forget to laugh with your mates and do something crazy once in a while :)

Trail running and ultrarunning

Enjoying life is very important to me so family time, travelling, foodies but definitely running are my priorities. I can also combine my running story with the rest so that is definitely a plus.
