LANESIX

Ultra-endurance sports demand absolute discipline, but the line between dedication and self-destruction is often paper-thin.

Arthur Vansteenkiste’s journey began on school tracks, where winning came naturally and the rush of standing on the podium defined his routine. That drive to push further eventually spiralled into a fixation on weight, where less food felt like the only path to more speed. For Arthur, that logic locked him into a severe eating disorder, a quiet battle that spanned years behind the trophies. Seven years into recovery, he has found himself again. The struggle did not break him; it shaped him into who he is today, building the mental strength and quiet drive that define his life as an ultra-athlete for Lane Six.
