Trail Running

Ragna Debats

+ info

Ragna Debats is a Trail & Skyrunner of Dutch origin based in Spain. She comes from equestrian with a specialty of Dressage, in which she worked as a professional for several years. Her career as a runner began in 2008 and her constant work allowed her to become triple world champion in 2018:

  • IAAF / IAU World Trail (Penyagolosa Trails)
  • World Skyrunning (Ben Nevis, Scotland)
  • ISF World Cup Overall (as Kilian Jornet)

In 2019 she won the Marathon des Sables (Sahara Desert) in her category and was 9th overall, a milestone in the toughest stage race in the world. In 2020, she started the Rolling Mountains project with Pere Aurell, but the consequences of the Covid-19 pandemic forced them to modify much of it. This 2021 she wants to retaliate and enjoy again with a bib on her pants.

Pere Aurell

At 35, he is one of the most veteran active trail runners in our country. He has been running races for 18 years around the world, winning victories in Chile, Argentina, Spain … But it has not been until these last two seasons that the good results have come, since he has been able to devote himself fully to it: Winner of the Transvulcania and of the Skyextra World Cup 2018.

This 2019 he started winning at The Coastal Challange (Costa Rica) but an injury left him out of the competition until June, when he returned strongly in the world cup winning in Madeira and third in Mount Olympus (Greece).

Surely his biggest hits are coming!

I have been doing mountain all my life and I have been trailrunning for about 10 years. My passion for the mountains made me discover this sport where my two great passions come together: running and being in the mountains.

Finisher of the old 110km Ultra de Mallorca in 2012, it was my 1st ultra and since then we have not stopped: 4 times finisher of Ultra Pirineu, finisher UTMB of Montblanc 170 km, finisher Ultra Bastions, Trail and half marathon and 3 times Rialp Matxicots finisher. For me, the most beautiful race in Catalonia.

2022 presents itself with doubts due to an arrhythmia that I hope to be able to solve very soon.

Albert Mendoza

This 41-year-old family man, born in Manresa, became a true mountain addict in 2010. Since then he has become passionate about sports such as mountaineering, climbing and trailrunning.

He has climbed mountains such as Kilimanjaro (5,895m, Tanzania), Mount Toubkal in winter (4,167m, Morocco), climbed Dent du Geant (4,013m France/Italy) and Cavall Bernat de Montserrat solo.

He enjoys Skyrunning, which allows him to go up and down mountains quickly and lightly, that’s why he likes races like the Bastions race or the Comapedrosa Skyrace. But from time to time we also see him enjoying ultras like the Dolomiti Extrem, the Transgrancanaria, Cavalls del Vent or the UTMB CCC.

The Salomon Ultra Pirineu, the UTMB OCC or the Sky Gran Canaria are some of his goals for 2022.

He enjoys sharing his way of living in the mountains and thus transmits it with his images. You can find it cresting near a peak with Nutritape® patches on its legs.

Born in Extremadura and living in Catalonia, I am in love with nature and the mountains, an amateur trail runner, but when I wear a race number I give it my all and the more demanding the challenge, the more it motivates me. Ultra Montseny taught me how tough the weather can be in the mountains and Bastions how tough it can be to not have your head in the right place. VDA Vall de Arán was engraved on me. Without hesitation this 2022 I will return to VDA Vall d’Aran and I hope to fulfill the dream of doing UTMB Montblanc.

Hi everyone! I am from Badalona. At the age of 5 I started playing soccer, where I went through many categories, I even got to play “semi” professionally in the 3rd Division.

After leaving football, I started running in the mountains and now, for 4 years, I have become serious and I am training to compete in mountain races. I am passionate about spending hours and hours running, jumping and doing the crazy goat and that is why ultra-distance races have me in love, spending 10, 15, 20, 30 hours running, walking, raining, snowing, cold, heat… anyway, each race is UNIQUE and EPIC.

My special race to this day is Canfranc-Canfranc ultra, the longest 100km in the world. What a crazy race! The place is incredible, the mountains are majestic, the glaciers that you find along the way, lakes, fauna… the ups and downs of the race destroy your legs, your mind, your soul… but I did not let myself be overcome by any of the adversities and I crossed the finish line.

This 2021 I have done some general race podiums and 3rd overall in the Championchip de Catalunya league.

For this new season 2022 I have registration for Canfranc-Canfranc, that we will give everything. And we will participate in the Catalan championship, the Catalan cup and several trail leagues.
