Why I take part in Alpe d'HuZes

I’m joining my colleagues from DAMEN in participating in Alpe d’HuZes because I believe that by supporting one another, we can work towards a future where all forms of cancer are treatable and detected early. This future is only possible through continued research. By supporting me, you’ll be directly contributing to scientific advancements that could change countless lives.


Cancer has touched my family deeply—while some were able to fight back, we’ve also had to say heartbreaking goodbyes, including to both of my grandfathers.


With your support, we can help ensure that fewer families will have to face such loss in the future. Please join me in this important cause.

Thank you and why hiking?

Monday 14th Oct
Thank you for being interested to support a great cause and that you have clicked my link.

You may wonder why I decided to hike instead of running or biking. 
First of all, I, like probably most people, do not like to bike uphill, so that made biking a no-go. I also do not have a sportive bike, so with my bright orange Holland bike it does not look like a great idea.

But why not running? As a Rugby player that should be the logical choice. Unfortunate my knees are feeling and acting as if they are a lot older than the rest of my body. I think they consider themself to be the age of 80 something. One of the reasons you see me more often with kinesiotapes around them than without 😅 
So running over 14kms uphill is not the smartest choice.
But hiking, hiking is amazing! I always enjoyed marching during my time in the Navy and are still enjoying it. 
Therefore for the amazing cause of Alpe d‘Huez I will do my best and plan to not only walk up the hill once, but twice! 
So please donate and make it even more worth it! 
Let me know what you would like to read about and I am happy to write a blog post about it.

Thank you,
Tanja
