Mike Van Puffelen
Over the past eight years, I have learned a lot from my experiences with running, both what works and what doesn’t. These experiences have allowed me to listen to my body. Due to my PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder), sports have become an important outlet for me. At the same time, I try to help as many people as possible by giving them advice, so that they can also benefit from what I have learned.
My disciplines
Running, mountain biking, fitness and swimming
Number of hours’ training per week
6 - 15 hours

My favourite Etixx products
As an athlete, I am always looking for products that can support my performance and improve my recovery. The Isotonic Drink from Etixx is the perfect product for me. It not only has the ideal balance of carbohydrates and electrolytes my body needs to stay hydrated and energized during intense training, but it also tastes wonderfully refreshing. What I particularly appreciate is that it is quickly absorbed by my body, allowing me to maintain my energy levels and prevent cramps and fatigue.

Running and fitness
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.

Bobsleigh
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!
