We did a quick interview with Jan, so you can get to know the man behind the medals. 




"WHO'S YOUR HERO?"

A lot of people consider you their hero or role model. But, who's yours?

Jan:
"Well, my dad. He was always a leading figure in my life, because of his values and what he stands for. But if I had to pick an athlete, I would go with Haile Gebrselassie (former Marathon World and Olympic Champion). Simply because whenever he was suffering during a race, he was smiling. Which made it so much more difficult for his opponents.

 
"WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE MEAL?"

If for the rest of your life, you could only eat 1 thing. What would it be?


Jan:
"I reckon I'm half-made of peanut butter & toast. I really like a proper sourdough bread, with peanut butter & butter in a 1-to-1 ratio. And then some nice strawberry jam, to top it off. Yeah, that would definitely be my go-to-meal. I thrive on happiness, so I need fat in my diet.
 
 
 "WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE BEER?"

Better think twice before you answer here.

Jan:
"Heineken. For sure. Haha no, all jokes aside, I've been a fan of alcohol-free beers for a long time. And the concept of Thrive Peak really stood out to me. It's just the perfect beer, especially after a sports session. The new Thrive Play. Oh man, I love the taste. It's my new daily healthy habit that one. When are you guys making a third beer?
