Today I am going off topic for a very good reason: my good friend Joyce Bijl is going to do a fundraising triathlon (swim 3,8km, cycle 180 km and run (walk) 21,1 km) on 9 January 2021 as part of the Flying Dutchman Team to raise money for cancer research. In 2014 Joyce transformed herself as she was tired of being unfit by participating in the Oxfam Trailwalker (100 km run through the HK hills), stepping in the ring for a white collar boxing fight for a benefit gala and finishing a 6 day ultramarathon through the Sahara, the Marathon des Sables. Joyce was unstoppable until cancer hit her in 2018. She is grateful for the treatment she received which enabled her to start to recover and to slowly participate in the races again. Listen to her interesting story and donate to the cause with the following link: https://thuistriathlon.mvdwfoundation.nl/actie/joyce-bijl?fbclid=IwAR1NKw0vS44OIU_D_cQaiVoBeMA8OhM-FzZRCcaOWNKnh-nw4F6C6_uacRM&locale=en The Oxfam Trailwalker: https://www.oxfamtrailwalker.org.hk/ Marathon des Sables: https://www.marathondessables.com/en Joyce's contact: Linkedin - https://www.linkedin.com/in/joyce-bijl-98933910 and IG - https://www.instagram.com/joyce.bijl.9/?hl=nl Mentioned book: Taming Tigers by Jim Lawless More info about the leading athlete Maarten van der Weijden: https://3athlon.nl/maarten-van-der-weijden-kijkt-uit-naar-thuistriathlon-jezelf-verbeteren-is-een-leuk-spelletje/?fbclid=IwAR2pv4o3uPsGGhJaoODXe-xbS_CgvY7FDM-XDH3kDzojlmLUN1G7Ulw2kCU IG of the Flying Dutchman: the_flying_dutchman_team
