Astonic's voor het goede doel

Join Sameena van der Mijden's Ultrarun Journey Against Forced Prostitution and Human Trafficking

Embark on a remarkable 10-day ultrarun with Sameena van der Mijden as she traverses 1,000 kilometers across the Netherlands, from June 16 to June 25. This extraordinary journey is not just about endurance; it's a powerful stand against forced prostitution and human trafficking. Following this feat, Sameena's autobiography releases on June 26, sharing her personal battle with forced prostitution and how running became her salvation.

Support on Wheels

Astonic E-Fatbikes Join the Cause Lotte Advocaat from Arkel and Ilse van Dijk from The Hague took to the streets on Astonic E-Fatbikes to support Sameena and her running partner for a day. Chosen for this noble cause, their participation on Astonic’s premium e-bikes adds a dynamic layer to the campaign.

Muskathlon

Racing for Justice "Muskathlon, under the slogan 'fight for justice, run, walk or bike with us!' organizes runs to spotlight crucial issues," Lotte explains. Affiliated with THDV, an organization dedicated to combating forced prostitution in the Netherlands, the Muskathlon serves as a platform for Sameena to fundraise for this cause.

The Astonic Experience

 "I've seen Astonic's presence on Instagram and even in Gorinchem's city park," Lotte shares. After reaching out, Lotte and Ilse began their early morning ride on June 22 in Venray, equipped with Astonic E-rides, symbolizing a robust partnership for justice.

Guiding the Runners

The journey was filled with support and preparation, from ensuring the runners stayed hydrated and nourished to navigating through picturesque fields, forests, and cityscapes from Venray to Den Bosch. Astonic E-Fatbikes proved their worth, seamlessly transitioning from natural terrains to urban environments, highlighting their versatility and reliability.
