With the Leiden Marathon and Utrecht Marathon on the calendar this month, it did not take long to find a suitable guest. Maikel Stolwijk ran to victory in both city marathons and recalls the anecdotes he gained from those races.
He experiences a marathon as a daze, during his debut he furnished his house in his thoughts. But how did he actually get his nickname The Green Frog? And why can you see him passing by in a kangaroo suit?
Furthermore, it is about the most important position of the football team: the linesman. And about the handwritten schedules of his (famous) coach Bram Wassenaar. Eating miles on the treadmill. Getting out during the Amsterdam Marathon and disappearing into the arms of the lady with whom he later had a relationship. In short: plenty of food for discussion.
