Trail runner and entrepreneur: I try to build companies… without running into the wall.
Before trail running: the cycling years, on the road and on the mountain bike.
About
Born in 2000, from the Bugey region (Libre!). My first passion was cycling, until 2018.
Then my legs said stop. Unexplained pain, years of medical wandering, and finally a diagnosis: popliteal artery entrapment syndrome.
While rebuilding, I discovered trail running. Fully recovered in April 2025, I lined up at the SaintéLyon a few months later. The first results were encouraging, and trail running quickly became a real passion.
2026, my first real season. A few local warm-up races to get going, with three wins at the Veyziatrail, the Sentiers du Paty and the Brénod maratrail. Then the big goals: 7th place at the Grand Raid du Ventoux (87 km), two instructive DNFs at the Maquisards and in Verbier, and 2nd place at the KAT100 by UTMB®, which opened the doors to Chamonix.
Next goal: UTMB® in 2027.
