Duathlon

I am Jana, 27-year-old, recruiter, duathlete, bon vivant and friend of cyclist. Always looking for sporting challenges and physical and mental kicks. Driven by (sometimes too) challenging race goals, constant personal development and long distance challenges that pull me out of my comfort zone. Further passionate about healthy and balanced (sports) nutrition, which makes me very proud to be an Etixx Ambassador. I can always trust the products of Etixx to help me reach my sporting goals.

Cycling - Cantabria Deporte Rio Miera and Catalan Federation

I always try to do my best in sports but studying as well. I love to study and learn new things at university. About my sports facet, I think that i’m very constant and hardworking, also quite perfectionist. I’ve gone through a bad stage this last year which forced me to stop running for an indeterminate time but i’m trying to improve my cycling to race at the highest level. I’m so glad that I can combine sports and studying in my life, that makes me so happy.

Triathlon

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 :)
