F&S team at La Bruxelloise 2022

Women Running and Nordic Walking for Fitness and Against Cancer

10 September 2022

Good news everyone!

We are pleased to announce that Friskis&Svettis will participate with a team of Runners and Nordic Walkers in the 12th edition of La Bruxelloise, a women’s charity race in Brussels, on 25th September 2022 at 10:30 AM.

Friskis would like to encourage as many of it's members as possible to participate in this worthy cause by running or walking in this race while proudly wearing your Friskis&Svettis t-shirt. You can sign up for the race directly on the Bruxelloise website. The cost is 10€ for adults and 5€ for children. 

La Bruxelloise is a race aimed at women (or men dressed as women) for the benefit of research against breast cancer in partnership with the fondation St-Luc. This year it will once again take part in Woluwe-Saint-Lambert at the Fallon Stadium. As part of La Bruxelloise participants can choose take part in a 3km, 6km or 9km run depending on their preferences. Nordic walkers are also welcome and encouraged. There will also be a race for kids (ages 7-12) of 1420m. Friskis will have a stand to help support it's participants (so you can leave your kit while you race) and it will also be in charge of the warm-up before the race. 

Do you want to join? Then please sign up for the race directly on the Bruxelloise 
website and be sure to wear your Friskis t-shirt on the day of the race. Also please be sure to send an email to friskisbxl@gmail.com indicating the distance you want to run so that we can keep track of how many participants we can expect. Or if you don't want to participate in the race but would still like to help by volunteering to man the stand that's would be most appreciated.  
 

Schedule of the race (31st October 2021):

  • 9h00 : opening of the village
  • 10h15 : start of the children's race (ages 6 - 12 years)

Want to train for the big race? 
Well then we warmly invite you to join the outdoor community of Friskis and elect your preferred session. And let us remind you you that we are offering 8 Running and Nordic Walking Sessions every week:

  • Start to Run on Wednesdays evenings from 19:30-20:15 and on Sundays from 10:00-10:45 in Parc du Woluwe (meeting point: a few meters away from the “Chien Verts” stop (36, 39, 44)). For beginners who have little to no experience running. Please note that in November 2022 our Wednesday sessions will move to Parc du Cinquantenaire (meeting point at the Merode entrance).
  • Running Quality every Monday from 19:30-20:30 in Parc du Cinquantenaire (meeting point at the Merode entrance). These are one-hour sessions which aim to improve your running technique, strength and speed. These sessions are suitable for experienced and regular runners.
  • Running Cross every Thursday from 19.30-20:30 in Parc du Cinquantenaire (meeting point at the Merode entrance). These sessions are a varied, all-around training class where you exercise at various “stations” (benches, up-hills…) and challenge the body in a different way (muscle strength, intervals, …). These sessions are suitable for experienced and regular runners.  
  • Running Distance every Saturday at 10:00 - 11.30 in Parc du Cinquantenaire (meeting point at the Merode entrance) and Sunday at 11:00 - 12:30 in the Fôret de Soignes at the ADEPS center (Waversesteenweg 2057, 1160 Audergem), for experienced and regular runners, it guarantees 90 minutes of fun and fresh air!
  • Nordic Walking takes place on Tuesday at 19:00 at Parc du Woluwe (meeting point: a few meters away from the “Chien Verts” stop (36, 39, 44)) or on Saturdays at 9:30am at 4 bras (4 Armen Tervuren) to discover a new and fun way to stay fit and gradually improve your physical well being.

 

If you want to excercise your whole life, it must be fun.

Therefore, our excercise affects and challenges our body and minds. We are rather in the experience industry than in the health industry.
