I am primarily someone who doesn't give up easily and who sees everything positively. I run recreationally 60-100 km/week. The Etixx products are a fantastic asset for my (now much less) injury-prone body. I am very proud to be a part of this top team!
Running
10 hours
"Tough runs don't last,
tough runners do!"
Isotonic Drink Energy Gel during training sessions: easy to use, the body doesn't object to the gels, delicious.
Recovery Shake PRO LINE (banana) after strenuous training sessions and competitions: a shake that I find hard to resist. Really delicious and also super useful for recovery!
Collagen Complex every day: injury prevention in a pot! Flavourless is a plus point here!
Carbo-Gy/ Natural Oat Bar/ Energy Sport Bar before training sessions (especially if I plan to go for a run after work): handy energy-deliverers that I switch around according to the training session/time of day. The Natural Oat Bars in particular taste heavenly!
Not giving up after a lot of injuries, 3 operations and literally having to start again from 0.

Hi. I am Robbert Slagers, I am most happy when I run that gives me so much joy. I did different sports like korfball, hockey and basketball. Until my son's BSO school asked if I wanted to join the kids run of the Eindhoven Marathon. I liked it so much and it was a great experience that I started getting into running. I started training to get my fitness level up, so that I could start achieving my goal of running a longer distance at the Eindhoven Marathon one day.

After a (youth) career in athletics, I switched to the Belgian bobsleigh team. After a few years, I retrained from brakewoman to pilot, while also completing my Masters in physiotherapy. In 2015, I was employed part-time by Sport Flanders as pilot and I am now about to start my 10th bobsleigh season. Qualifying for the Olympic Winter Games in 2018 was an amazing feeling and made me dream of doing more in 2022, in Beijing. I now practise my sport full time, while also being a proud Godmother to my nephew, the apple of my eye. I am very proud to be part of the Etixx ambassadors team, a super-talented and motivated group of athletes and sports enthusiasts. Being supported by such a professional company with good-quality, clean products gives me an extra push to achieve my dream of a top result in Beijing 2022!
