While in college, Hidde ran track, qualifying and competing in the National finals in both the US and the Netherlands. After college he continued to be active by competing in triathlons, including finishing the Iron Man triathlon in Lake Placid.
Following his graduation from Stockton University, Hidde started to work in in-patient rehabilitation, gaining valuable experience in neurological and orthopedic disorders. For the last 23 years, he has been the Director of the Physical Therapy clinic at the JCC in Margate, NJ. Margate has become a second home for him.
