1 – Tell us a bit about yourself

In everyday life I work as a physiotherapist and running coach, but my true passion has always been the mountains. Since I was a child, running and nature have been part of me, positively influencing every aspect of my life. Mountain running gave me the unique emotion of wearing the blue jersey of the Italian national team in numerous international events: experiences that I carry in my heart and that are priceless. Today I continue to pursue my dreams, seeking the right balance between training, work, and family.

4 – Why did you decide to become a RedElk Ambassador?

I met RedElk in 2019 and from the very beginning I felt the difference of being an ambassador for an Italian company, with direct and authentic relationships. Over the years I have seen increasingly advanced technical products come to life and an expansion that today truly embraces the entire outdoor world. For me, living in the mountains means wearing RedElk every day, in everyday life as well as in sport.

6 – What is your favorite RedElk item?

Difficult question… but at the moment I have a soft spot for the colorful T-shirts with awesome graphics like KAL-PEAK! and AXE-BRAND! They make every run more fun and bring energy everywhere.

In 2024 I won the World Snowshoe Running Championships and RedElk was always by my side both during preparation on the snow and during the trip and race in Spain. One of the most beautiful emotions.

Outdoor sports are becoming increasingly popular and that is a wonderful thing for the physical and mental health benefits that outdoor activity brings. It is important to approach it gradually and according to your own abilities, always with the appropriate equipment!

9 – What is your next challenge?

My next challenge? To pass on my passion for running and the mountains to others, not only as a coach, but above all as a great enthusiast.
