The OER-Hollandse winter duathlon by Lymph&Co! Ice skating and cycling together against lymphoma

10 kilometers of skating followed by 90 kilometers of cycling! A unique Dutch sporting event! 

This 9th edition of the fantastic OER-Hollandse 100 event features a total of 5 parts:

• The Hollandse 100: 10 km skating and 90 km cycling
• The Half Hollandse 100: 5 km skating and 45 km cycling for those who find the whole Hollandse 100 a bit too much
• The Junior 10: 10 km skating on the sacred ice of Thialf for youth up to 18 years old
• The Family/Group Relay: skate as many laps as possible within one hour with your friends, family, colleagues, or teammates
• The Walking Challenge: walk 10 or 20 kilometers through the beautiful Frisian landscape. The choice is yours!

For the 10 km, you need to skate 25 laps. We have two HEATS: one for very fast skaters and one for all other skaters. You are considered a fast skater if you complete 10 km in under 20 minutes.

Perhaps you know someone who can do the skating part for you? You can then sign up together as one participant. If that’s really not possible, you can also choose to just cycle (or skate) alone.

Yes, you can. Ice skates and bicycles are available for rent here: Schaatsen/fietsen huren

The bike route will be announced as soon as possible in the Participants Information section on the website. The route will also be available for download on Strava.

Your favorite sports clothing, plus mandatory gloves and a helmet. Keep in mind the possible weather conditions; it can be quite cold while cycling.
Bring warm and dry clothes for after the ride.

Thialf has a large Brasserie with an extensive selection of food and drinks. Additionally, the Kluuncafé will be open during The Hollandse 100.

Certainly, that’s great! Everyone is warmly welcome to come and cheer you on. We will also provide a full day of entertainment for both young and old. While we don’t have childcare, we do have a kids’ club where children can engage in creative crafts.

The Hollandse 100 is primarily intended to raise funds for fundamental research into lymphoma.

The stated fundraising goal is the average amount that our participants have raised in donations from their networks in previous years. It is truly a goal and not a requirement. If you raise less, you are still welcome to participate. However, we would greatly appreciate it if you make an effort to raise funds from your friends, family, colleagues, or teammates in addition to your athletic performance. Remember: you’re not asking for yourself, but to give every lymphoma patient a better chance of survival.
