Running
I am primarily someone who doesn't give up easily and who sees everything positively. In addition to running for myself recreationally (60-100 km/week), I am also Charlotte Van Hese’s trainer. The aim is to make her a real top athlete without her losing the pleasure of running. The Etixx products are a fantastic asset for my (now much less) injury-prone body. I am very proud to be a part of this top team!

If I had to describe myself in a few words I would say: Spontaneous, authentic, determined, passionate, independent and lively. I think spontaneous and authentic reflect me well, determined and passionate about my vision and the approach I have to my sport and independent and lively how I like to build life.
