RunX Apeldoorn is fortunate to be led by Seb Wiggemans, a driven entrepreneur with an inexhaustible passion for everything related to running. When we ask him what he likes best about his work, Seb smiles and says: “It doesn’t feel like work; every day I get to advise on my greatest hobby.”
For Seb it’s all about sharing his expertise and passion for running with others. He enjoys advising clients on the best products, as he believes the right gear can make all the difference in achieving your running goals.
When it comes to favorite models and brands, Seb has a keen eye for quality and performance. Currently, he enjoys running in Saucony's Endorphin series , especially the Elite and the Pro . These shoes not only offer speed and responsiveness but also last a long time thanks to the combination of superfoam and a carbon plate. Seb does a lot of long runs in the Adidas Supernova Rise , due to the excellent fit and versatility on various terrains.
Although Seb doesn’t have a specific mantra for running, he is a firm believer in setting goals to work towards. This focus has helped him achieve impressive feats, such as winning medals at the National Junior Championships and achieving success with his club at various championships.
Outside of the store, Seb is also closely involved in the running community in the Apeldoorn region. RunX Apeldoorn sponsors various competitions and events, including the Midwinter Marathon and local runs such as the Harderwijk half and the IJsselloop in Deventer. In addition, RunX Apeldoorn supports several athletics clubs in the region and they are proud shirt sponsor of STAA, a foundation that supports young talented athletes from Apeldoorn to reach the top of the Netherlands.
