Urologist & Endurance Athlete Sport has been an integral part of my life from an early age. Beginning with swimming and volleyball in my youth, I continued this passion through secondary school, focusing on sports sciences. Today, as a practicing urologist and surgeon, I find balance and rejuvenation through running and cycling after demanding days in the hospital. I am proud to serve as a team doctor for Alpecin–Deceuninck, where I merge my medical expertise with my enthusiasm for cycling. Personally, I’ve completed several granfondos, notably finishing as the fourth woman in the Cannibale. Over the past two years, I’ve embraced gravel biking, enjoying the freedom it offers in nature. Running remains a cornerstone of my routine. Since 2025, I’ve been a member of the ASICS FrontRunner team, embodying the philosophy “Sound Mind, Sound Body.” With three marathons completed and a personal best of 3:45, I’ve recently ventured into trail running and am preparing for my first trail race this summer. For me, sport is more than just physical activity—it’s therapy, passion, and a way of life.

The Etixx Energy Nougat Sport Bar and the Etixx Energy Marzipan Sport Bar are my favourite! The new Energy Bar Fruit Chew with red fruits are really tasty and also possible to take during a run to combine with gels during a race.

Athletics (Heptathlon)
I’m Anne, 29 years old, and sport is my greatest passion—something that has played an important role in my life since childhood. As a child, I explored various sports, and I firmly believe that versatility not only makes you a better athlete but also a more well-rounded person. Since 2017, I have been fully dedicated to mountain biking (Cross Country Olympic discipline). It’s an incredible sport that pushes your endurance, strength, and technique to the limit. In 2021, my childhood dream came true when I had the opportunity to compete in the Olympic Games in Tokyo. My goal is simple: to enjoy the sport every day and continuously challenge myself to improve.

Sports were instilled in me from a young age, and soon I, like my brother and sister, got involved in athletics. Long-distance running is a form of relaxation therapy for me, even though my goal is to reach the top. As a dietitian, I traded the nurturing spoon for the Etixx gels, which I hope, just like the nurturing spoon, will help me grow big—but in sports.

Fui triatleta de élite. Competí en muchas carreras internacionales y me encantaba entrenar muy duro. En 2022 me lesioné y aún no hemos encontrado la cura para las varias fracturas óseas que aparecen cada vez que intento correr. Aunque aún no puedo competir, sigo entrenando fuerte todos los días para poder volver el día en que encontremos el origen de mi problema de salud. Amo mi deporte y sé que lo lograré de alguna manera.
