    Who is the walking coach?  

    Winny De Prycker (62) decided to become a Pink Ribbon walking coach in 2022. After going through a tough journey as a cancer patient herself, she wanted to get back into active exercise. "This was not obvious, so I wanted to do this in a group. This way I can also support others from my own experience," says the coach.

    In three words, Winny would describe herself as creative, warm-hearted and passionate. The best compliment she ever received was "You are an inspiration."  

    How often do we go hiking?  

    Once a week Winny plans a walk of about 5 kilometers, meeting on Saturday at the culture house in Merelbeke at 10 am. In addition, once a month they walk 12 to 15 kilometers, this continues on Sundays.  

    What region are we hiking in?  

    M&M WiWALK hikes in East Flanders, mainly in the region of Genten Merelbeke, but also in the Flemish Ardennes.

    Count steps instead of minutes

    We are advised to be active for 150 minutes each week for a healthy life and the lowest possible risk of cancer, but counting active minutes is not so helpful. According to new research, you might as well express your activity in increments. A lot more practical.
