Robin Hendrix

I am a distance runner of 28 years old and I live in Kapelle-op-den-Bos. I started taking part in international championships at the age of 22, and the Olympic Games in Tokyo were the biggest event I ever had the privilege of taking part in. Until last year, I was still studying for my bachelor's degree in architecture at the LUCA school of arts in Brussels. Since this year, I have been practising my sport professionally under contract at Topsport Belgian Defence. I dream of achieving a top 10 place at a World Championship or Olympic Games.

My favourite Etixx products

Recovery Shake PRO LINE: The ideal recovery shake I need after heavy workouts.

Iron 125 AA: I use it to go on altitude training, where it is crucial not to have an iron deficiency. In addition, the included vitamins ensure good absorption.

Night Protein Shake: Helps me to recover well during the night from a heavy training or competition.


Why are you satisfied that Etixx has become the new sports nutrition partner of the Runners' lab Athletics Team?
