Mieke Waterschoot

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.

Clémence Beretta

Athletics (Heptathlon)

My name is Clémence Beretta, and I'm a professional athlete specialising in the 20 km race walk. I train once or twice a day, guided by a strong philosophy: focusing on the process rather than the outcome, while staying aligned in mind, heart, and body. Over the years and through 16 selections for the French national team, my approach has evolved significantly. I’ve developed a deep awareness of my body and sensations, prioritising my mental well-being and personal balance over an obsession with the stopwatch.

Anne Tauber

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.
