Gosselin on the run @ 40th Antwerp Ten Miles
Last weekend was all about exercise, team spirit, and above all, lots of enthusiasm during the anniversary edition of the 40th Antwerp Ten Miles. With our team name “Gosselin on the Run,” we showed off our most athletic side.
Two days, one strong Gosselin vibe
The action kicked off on Saturday with the Short Run & Kids Run. Nearly 20 Gosselin runners lined up at the start. On Sunday, it was time for the “real deal”: the Ten Miles. No fewer than 60 Gosselin colleagues were spread across 10 waves at the starting line. From first-time participants to experienced runners, everyone gave it their all, at their own pace.
Colleagues from Mechels Verhuisbedrijf and Unimove joined in. Some even came all the way from Rotterdam. A special shout-out to them, especially to those who ran the 5 Miles last year and have now made the leap to the Ten Miles. Some impressive times were recorded. But what stood out most of all? The tremendous enthusiasm. For many, it was their very first time participating, and their reactions afterward spoke volumes.
For Chris Schoonheydt, who broke his personal record, it was definitely worth doing again. “The atmosphere was great during the race. Lots of cheering along the route, good refreshments, and afterwards we were treated to drinks, energy bars, and wraps. It was nice to have so much visibility with our booth and T-shirts.”
“The Ten Miles is an event that we, as an Antwerp-based company, simply can’t miss,” says Vince, who, sporting the recognizable Gosselin green, also clocked the fastest time for Gosselin. “It was a great edition with beautiful weather, lots of people, and a fantastic atmosphere.”
“This was my second time participating, and the trip from the Netherlands was definitely worth it. Thanks to the Gosselin organization for the great hospitality and refreshments. Gosselin ‘moves’ not only customers but also colleagues toward top performance,” says Jan Van Der Touw
Sport & Fitness
This participation fits perfectly with our Sports & Fitness initiatives, through which we actively promote the well-being and health of our employees. A big thank you to all the runners for their dedication, motivation, and team spirit. And, of course, to the supporters who lined the course. On to the next sporting event… because one thing is certain: Gosselin is always on the move!
