I’ve always been passionate about sports, but for nearly 20 years, I lived a mostly sedentary life. In 2020, I returned to the mountains with the goal of losing weight — and that’s when I discovered trail running. Over the past three years, it has become a true passion.

I started with vertical races, then gradually increased the distances, going from 10 km to 50 km, and eventually tackling races up to 140 km, like the Tor130. I found that long distances not only pushed me physically but also gave me immense mental benefits.

Trail running has allowed me to explore breathtaking landscapes and connect with runners who share the same love for the sport — friendships built on a deep and mutual passion.

I joined the TrailRunAdvisor project because I believe in giving visibility to lesser-known races set in beautiful locations, and I’m excited to help grow a real community of enthusiasts who share information and experiences.
