My name is Tille De Smul. I am 21 years old and am currently studying nutrition and dietetics, where I am further developing my interest in healthy eating and sports nutrition.
From an early age, I learned orienteering through our family. It led to many Belgian titles and international selections. Especially the combination of the physical and technical aspect attracts me.
For physical training, I am under the guidance of Roel Breugelmans (ETL). Last summer as a junior I ran the World Championships elite sprint orienteering in Edinburgh, where I finished 29th out of 106. I am looking forward to further progression with my main goals this year being the World Games in Chengdu, China, the EOC in Belgium and the World Cup in Switzerland.
