Athletic Background

Bodine has trained at AV Altis since the very beginning of her athletic career, where she has developed as part of the club’s distance team. Since the age of 14, she has been a consistent competitor in the national U18 team championships, gaining experience and learning to perform in both individual and team-based competitions.

She has also competed at multiple Dutch National Championships, with strong results including a 6th place in the 2000m steeplechase at the U18 Nationals and a 4th place in the indoor 3000m.

Together with her coaches, Bodine has chosen a gradual and deliberate development path, focusing first on building the right foundation before increasing her training load. As a result, she currently runs a moderate weekly volume, but has developed the physical and mental base to handle higher mileage in the future. This careful approach has created the conditions for sustainable progress and long-term performance growth.

Her growing dedication to the sport has allowed her to continuously improve her endurance and race execution across a range of middle- and long-distance events.
