SOFICO Ghent Marathon 2025 - we'll be ready!


For all ambassadors, it will be the first time they complete the distance of their choice. To have them prepared responsibly, they started with a series of assessments, including a DEXA scan and a lactate threshold test on the treadmill.
Beyond the physical tests, our Best Us Ambassadors geared up for three action-packed workshops. They delved into everything from analyzing test results to mastering warm-up and stretching routines, and even uncovered the secrets of efficient running and breathing. It was a full day of holistic preparation that’s bound to push them toward new heights on Sunday October 30!

Best Us?
The Best Us Ambassadors are on a mission to embody SOFICO’s spirit of always striving to be the best version of oneself.
” Having two previous ambassadors in the office, I ran out of excuses of why not to go for it. For every ‘I don’t have time..’ or ‘But it is cold/winter time..’ , I got three positive and encouraging counter arguments! So even though this is (way) out of my comfort zone, going for it! “
Keep up with the Ambassadors!
Keep your eyes peeled because we’ll be sharing regular updates on the Best Us Ambassadors’ progress—everything from triumphs to challenges, breakthroughs, and maybe a sprinkle of healthy competition.
We’re more than just coworkers; we’re their biggest cheerleaders, and we’re excited to watch these Soficans turn into marathon superstars!
” Running has always been a hobby of mine, but I have never pushed myself beyond the 10-mile mark. With six months of training and guidance ahead of me, I’m gearing up for my first full marathon, a true test of my limits. Excited to start this journey with my fellow ambassadors! “
