Thomas De Bock
Hello, I am Thomas De Bock, 31 years old and working as a doctoral student at the research group of sports management at UGent. In between working hours I run a lot of kilometres, mostly in preparation of a marathon. In the past, I have already tasted European and World Championships but I still have two major goals in my athletics career, namely to run under 2h10 at the marathon and qualifying for the Olympic marathon in 2024.
My discipline
Athletics - marathon -> Runners' lab Athletics Team
Number of hours’ training per week
20 hours
My favourite Etixx products
I always use the Isotonic during my endurance training so that I can finish my workouts with enough energy and keep my fluid levels up. I also use the Sport Hydro Tab every day for longer, more intensive training sessions.
Why are you satisfied that Etixx has become the new sports nutrition partner of the Runners' lab Athletics Team?
Etixx has a very wide and scientific range of sports nutrition products. This means that every athlete in our team can find all the products in the Etixx range, tailored to his/her needs and in function of his/her number. This allows training sessions and races to be completed even more efficiently.

Trail running
A neurosurgeon by profession and an ultratrail runner by passion, he is someone who constantly pushes the boundaries of his physical and mental limits. Through his dedication to the trail, he seeks not just personal achievement but also a deeper purpose — using his journey to inspire, help others, and make a positive impact. His relentless drive is fueled by the belief that challenges, whether on the operating table or in the wilderness, can lead to meaningful deeds that extend far beyond oneself.

Cross-Country 5km, 10km
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.
