TCS Amsterdam Marathon 2026

Why I am running <3

I'm running against cancer during TCS Amsterdam Marathon 2026 as I know how many people whose lives have been impacted by cancer. Even when it hasn't affected you directly, seeing the effect it has on those around you makes the importance of research impossible to ignore. This run is my way of turning that awareness into action and supporting better treatments, hope and outcomes for the future, for us all. Will you sponsor me? Together with the Dutch Cancer Society (KWF), we'll create a better life with and after cancer.

Running with purpose, again. Amsterdam Half Marathon 2026 🤍

Monday 29th Dec

In 2026, I’ll have been running for ten years — something I never really planned, but that’s become a constant in my life. This past year, I ran more than I ever had before and surprised myself with how much I enjoyed it, especially when I combined it with fundraising. Earlier this year, I raised money for Palestine and ran my first half marathon in March, which showed me how motivating it can be to run for something bigger than just the finish line.

Running with a purpose gave the training more structure and meaning, and the support along the way made it even more rewarding. It’s something I want to keep doing.

That’s why I’m excited to run another half marathon in 2026, this time through Amsterdam, and in support of cancer research. Knowing how many people around me have been impacted by cancer makes this cause especially meaningful 🤍🏃‍♀️
