'Dirty 30' Trail Run, Swedish Day Spinning, and more in June!
01 June 2024
June is here and in addition to the 40 regular weekly indoor and outdoor sessions, including Multifys interval training in Parc du Cinquantenaire, we've got exclusive sessions lined up at Friskis this month!
June 6th is Swedish National Day!
So the spinning session will be a special Swedish one! Swedish energy, music and drinks included!
Come and sweat in Swedish on Thursday 6th at 7.30pm at Jims.
June 15th at 9:30am in the Sports centre of the Sonian Forest we will have an Introduction to Nordic Walking
Nordic Walking Cross is a combination of the traditional walk using correct NW technique (including warm-up and cool-down) and several 5-10 minutes stops for exercises designed to strenghthen your upper and lower body, balance and flexibility using NW poles, bodyweight and the outdoor surroundings at hand.
If you have never done Nordic Walking before and would need to borrow the poles, please make sure that you arrive 15 mins before the session.
June 29th will be 'The Dirty 30'! Yes, you read right! A long and dirty distance trail run.
Start at 9.30am at the entrance of Berlaymont (EU Commission, Schuman).
Take a train at 9.45am to Leuven, then change to another train at 10.57am to Heverlee.
Then, comes the fun! Start running at 11.15am, until 3.15pm.
Run, talk and enjoy, all in zone 2.
After 16km, arrive at the Africa Museum in Tervuren! Keep on running until Brussels or take the Tram 44 to go back to Montgomery.
Why is it dirty? Well, because it rhymes with 30. But also because there's no chance of stopping for a drink or a bar along the way, so you'll have to rely on your own supplies! So bring your energy drinks, gels, bars, anything you can think of. Also, most of the course is sheltered from the sun, but not the first 7.5km. So protection might be an idea.

More special sessions will happen in June, so look for updates from Friskis Brussels this month...
As always, register for these sessions and more on the app and have fun!
