About TrailCrew
Hi, I'm Sven.
Founder and trail guide. TrailCrew grew out of what makes me happiest: being outdoors and running together in nature.
How TrailCrew came about.
Running is my passion. I enjoy running on the road, but it's in the woods and on the trails that I truly come alive. No clock ticking, terrain that keeps changing, and routes you have to find yourself. Over my years of running I've come to know the finest spots in Twente and just across the border.
What draws me to the trail are the ever-changing challenges and overcoming them (together). Celebrating the moment you stand on top of a mountain, or slogging through the mud together and laughing hard about it afterwards. Those great adventures are what I want more people to experience.
That's how TrailCrew came about. Whether it's guiding groups through their first trail experience, supporting experienced running groups along the route with the TrailCrew basecamp, or fully running an aid station at (ultra)trails, I want people to experience the magic of trail running.
Trails, trips and experience.
A glimpse of where I come from as a runner and guide.
At home in Twente and beyond
Countless runs through the woods and heathlands of the eastern Netherlands and just across the border. I know the routes that make the difference between a loop and a real adventure.
From first taste to ultra
Short trails for those just starting out, long distances for those ready for them. I know how to keep a group whole and happy.
Guidance & organisation
Years of experience as a competitive athlete (marathon PB 2:36:06) and organising races small and large (Singelloop Enschede, Twentse Cross Competitie).
