Multistage race Marroco - Filip

During my search for guidance for my first multi-stage race, I ended up with Erik. Before that time, I had already built up some experience with training schedules for various races up to the marathon distance. Although I knew that I needed more professional guidance for this new challenge, I was not exactly able to name what that guidance should entail. During the process, however, it turned out that Erik could perfectly play into these 'missing parts'.

It was impressive how he was able to align his extensive experience and knowledge of running, combined with his insight into everything that has to do with the 'real-world athlete', with the missing links that I still had. This was absolutely not done in a didactic way. On the contrary, Erik pushes you to draw the right conclusions yourself from the experiences that he shares and, above all, lets you go through during the training.

Not only did I achieve a great result in my first multistage, but thanks to his coaching I also learned a lot more about my own body and intrinsic motivation. Erik makes his athletes smarter and himself redundant—but that's exactly why he's indispensable...
