Juoksuvuosi 2026 luottojutut talteen:

Millä juoksin?
Kaikki kisat meni tänä vuonna Altra Mont Blanc Carbonilla. Tykkäsin ihan älyttömästi, kevyt ja istuva, mutta riittävä varvastila. Ei yhtään rakkoa, ei yhtään mustaa tai irronnutta kynttä. Harjoituskenkänä rinnalla kulkeneet myös Altra Olympus 275 ja asfaltilla/matolla Altra FWD Via. Vetotreeneissä välillä vanha Hoka Carbon X jonka pohja alkoi tuntua siltä että ei ehkä toimi enää kuin pitäisi. Fan girl moment @eevi.bengs kanssa Vaarojen perusmatkan lähdön yleisössä, kun oltiin samat Altrat jalassa ja Eevi kysyi miten olen tykännyt. ❤️ On kenkiä, ja on Altroja!

Mitä tankkasin?
Siirryin urheilujuoma+Jollos komboista enemmän veteen ja Sis Beta Fuel geeleihin. Harvemmin ja enemmän geeliä toimi ongelmitta, vesi upposi urheilujuomaa paremmin. Pureskelu ja kiinteämmät ovat minulle vaikeita ja pahan olon kanssa ei ole kiva kulkea. Suolojen ja kramppien kanssa taistelu jatkui osassa kisoja.

Mitä puin päälle?
Merinoa, merinoa ja merinoa. Rabin hyvät bokserit ovat toimineet niin ongelmitta, etten uskalla juosta kisoja millään muulla 🫣😁 Vuoden yksi harvoista hankinnoista nousi arjen ja kisojen suosikiksi: @tempusown shortsit taskuineen.

Mikäli eksyn myös asfalttimaralle ensi vuonna, joutuu pohtimaan kenkävalintoja ja tunnustelemaan kestääkö jalat iskutusta. Kenkävalinnat ei ole ollut helppoja kun naisten koot loppuu usein kesken ja miesten mallit ei istu. Ja kaupan päälle Mortonin neurooma eli vaimennusta ja leveää toe boxia ilman ei oikein pärjää.

Palautuminen ja flunssailu on saanut aikaan kaiken maailman kolotuksia. Upeeta, että sain juosta paljon ja olla terveenä tänä vuonna. Tästä on hyvä lähteä kasvattamaan voimaa ja tekemään peruskuntoa 🫶🏼

Eevi Bengs ja N² Fuel jatkavat hyvin alkanutta yhteistyötä!

"On mahtavaa jatkaa yhteistyötä N2 Fuelin kanssa. Sisu geeli ja Sisu korkeaenerginen urheilujuoma ovat olleet kovassa käytössä ja ne ovat toimineet kisoissa erittäin hyvin. Ensi vuoden kisakalenteri on vielä auki, mutta on kiva tietää, että energiat kisoihin on valmiina."

Eevi on vienyt N² Fuel tuotteet äärimmäisiin olosuhteisiin mm. @utmbmontblanc 173km matkan ja @julianalpstrailrun 122km matkan kisoissa ja menestynyt niissä hienosti.

Meillä on ilo ja kunnia tarjota energiat Eevin menestyksen poluille!

Altra + Chamonix recap 🔂

I had a lovely few days in Chamonix with @altrarunning @altrarunning_europe during UTMB finals week. Packed quite a lot including participating in a panel on women in running, trail and ultra-running alongside elite athletes Eevi Bengs and Adriana Moser, nutritionist Nouchka Simic and Altra Head of Product Costanza Campos. It was such a pleasure to share the panel with them and hear about their experiences and perspectives

We covered a lot, from body confidence to safety, women’s elite sport, designing products that actually meet women’s needs, and the evolution of UTMB’s platform for women in trail running.

Big thanks to Altra for having me, and to everyone on the panel for such an open and inspiring discussion and for any one that swung by to tune in.

Here’s to celebrating women across running and continuing to create opportunities for women at every level of the sport. 🏔️✨

Chamonix gifted us with a whole lot of emotions. 🏔️
Highs, lows, pain, fatigue — and plenty of moments to be proud of.

What a performance from @i.careth, taking an outstanding 4th female place at the UTMB®, followed by @amanda_basham in 11th position. A huge round of applause for @eevi.bengs, closing in 32nd! 👏
@aubinferrari delivered an amazing race too, finishing in the top 20 and rounding Mont Blanc in under 21 hours. ⛰️🔥
@uugoooo.. what a fight. He gave it absolutely everything, battling through pain and fatigue to make it to the finish. A little later than expected, but he took it home. 💪

Big applause for @wildwigley, finishing 28th overall at the CCC®! A smart, conservative start followed by a perfectly paced acceleration all the way to the finish. 👊
@michelemeridio made his debut over the 100K distance and came away with a strong 39th place overall. What a way to start! 🔥

And hats off to @trails4smiles and @l_allison, finishing 13th and 17th female respectively. 👏✨

Another great chapter! @martina.cumerlato made her debut at the OCC® distance and smashed it with an amazing 16th female place, followed by @hollywootten in 26th position. ⚡️
And a big shoutout to @samuponce91 at OCC® and @il_luciano_rota at ETC for keeping the fight alive and pushing all the way to the end. 💪

Different races. One team. ❤️
Proud of every single one of you.

the last few weeks were crazy 🤪
from solid training sessions in Cham 📍

to some routines at home in ibk again 📍

recovering (mentally more than physically) from Swiss Canyons and Saint Jacques ultra

I discovered life is pretty good as long as it’s sunny (summer kiddo here)

put a little more moments ironically without a phone into my life again

and hung out with people who make me feel like I’m enough 🔅🫶

Tenth anniversary of Ecotrail Stockholm and the last chance to run the 80 km distance. I didn't want to miss that chance, so despite my miserable form during Uka Pain three weeks earlier, I set my alarm for 04:00.😱

The weather was cooler than last year's heat wave. Despite this, I was more uncertain about how it would go this year. During Uka Pain, I had completely lost energy, had pain in my leg and ran with crutches - sorry, I mean trekking poles, for larger parts of the race. The poles were brought to Ecotrail, a race that I would usually never dream of using poles for.

The starting signal sounded at 07.00 and we were off. The pain fluctuated in my leg. Sometimes a little more, sometimes a little less, but never unbearable. I was able to keep a decent pace for the first 20 km. Soon I reached Väsjöbacken. That was the only time I used my poles. Not because I needed to use them, more because it felt stupid not to use them on the highest hill of the race.

The tap after 40 km marked the half of the race. Since it was the fourth time I ran the race, I started to get to know the course. After the tap it's Granholmstoppen, a turn to Ursvik with its lovely hills. Then it was finally time for Hagakullen, here I feel just like home, through Hagaparken, along Brunnsviken, over the main road and then Norra Djurgården where you pass the finish area before setting off on the last 8 km, including both Ugglebacken and Mördarbacken. I tried to push as hard as I could. Just the final sprint into the headwind, up over the last hill and then down to the finish line!

I beat last year's time by two minutes and considering how the last six months training have been, I can be okay with that. My hip and leg ached, but not as bad as during Uka Pain, and my energy was back. Placement largely depends on who participates, but it's always fun to get on the podium. But I was disappointed when I opened the bag I received as a prize. In addition to the obligatory tubes and water bottles, I also received weight loss products! Come on @Ecotrailstockholmswe, it's 2026 now!
