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.

"The more miles I run,
the more food for my belly."
My conviction for choosing Etixx as sports nutrition partner
In recent years, I have been experimenting with different brands and have not had a fixed line in my sports nutrition. It is definitely an added value to find all the products within one brand, especially if it is well supported.

triatlón
Conocí el triatlón a través de mi padre que lo practicaba a nivel popular y siendo muy pequeño lo acompañaba a las carreras en las que participaba en Galicia.
Lee masTriathlon
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 :)
Lee masAthletics (5000m and 10000m)
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.
