Our Guidetti Performance Team was created at the end of 2019 and is made up of six ambassadors, athletes passionate about trail running and mountaineering. A big thank you to them for their trust and enthusiasm: Morgane Billard, Marine Feige, Fabrice Bernede, Sébastien Garnier, Stephen and Kévin Roux!
They proudly represent the colors and values of the two brands in the G-Tech group: Guidetti, for trail running poles and accessories, and Authentic Nutrition, for sports nutrition.
And thanks to their feedback from the field, we are constantly developing our products to best meet the needs of trail runners.
Morgane Billard
"I'm 26 years old and live in Grenoble, Isère, at the foot of the Belledonne Massif.
A former skater, I started running 5 years ago on the track near my house and I would buy bibs for trail races on the weekends. I quickly couldn't do without trail running! My favorite distance is 40 km, but I also run shorter and longer distances. I also practice cycling, cross-country skiing, and via ferrata.
Sport allows me to get away from all the worries of everyday life and fully enjoy what nature has to offer! I love sharing my passion with others during a run or on social media."
Stephen Roux
"I'm 32 years old and live in Saint-Gervais Mont-Blanc, Haute-Savoie.
I've always been passionate about sports, having played tennis, swimming, and skiing competitively. The physical preparations for all these sports involve races, and gradually, thanks to these preparations, my passion for running was born, and thus the beginning of trail running. It was in 2018 that my passion intensified, culminating in the Grand Raid de la Réunion in 2019 and a 50th place finish for my first ultra.
I'm also the organizer of the Ultra Trail la Montagn'Hard and the KV de la Diagonale du Mont Joly in St Gervais."
Fabrice Bernede
"Passionate about this sport, I've been running since I was 12, first on athletics tracks and then on the road: 10 km, half and marathon. I discovered trail running 6 years ago and since then it's been a passion for me with a very particular lifestyle. It meets a need for adventure, for freedom.
4 years ago, I decided to make my passion my job. I changed career paths in the world of sport and I've been a mental trainer since the summer of 2021.
Today, what I prefer are trails between 20 and 70 km on which I get the most pleasure while being in contact as much as possible with the mountains."
"Born in Megève, I've been immersed in the world of outdoor sports since I was little. Initially passionate about Crossfit, the need to practice an outdoor activity became increasingly present. So I naturally turned to trail running. I saw it as more fun and less monotonous than the flat running I already did regularly. I immediately felt good in the mountains: close to my roots, to my emotions. An escape, a way to completely disconnect: nature, the calm, the beauty of the landscapes. Just my legs and my breath. Feeling so small, so vulnerable, and so strong at the same time! Such contradictory yet exhilarating sensations.
And then one thing led to another, and I pinned on my first race number "just to see." What a discovery! I loved the sharing and mutual support that you find in trail races. This surpassing of oneself, and constantly pushing one's own limits."
Kévin Roux
"As a sports enthusiast and after many years of competitive running in various disciplines, I decided to focus on trail and ultra-trail running, which I thrive on. The emotions it provides, the freedom it offers, and the quest for self-improvement that it requires are a real driving force for me to improve and continually progress.
Aged 33 and living in St Gervais les Bains, I combine this passion with my job: physical trainer. I organize and plan training plans and nutritional advice for Trailers and various athletes. I also get involved in associations as a volunteer or board member."
Sébastien Garnier
"I'm 27 years old and live in Haute Maurienne. I'm passionate about sports (cross-country skiing, trail running, cycling, ski mountaineering) and I love the mountains.
I started trail running in 2015 with formats between 20 and 50 km as a complement to training for my Nordic ski seasons. Then, gradually, I switched mainly to trail running and tried to perform well in this discipline (victory in the espoir category in the SaintExpress in 2016, 3rd in the EDF Cenis Tour 23 km in 2018, 6th in Méribel 25 km in 2020, 2nd in the EDF Cenis Tour 37 km in 2022)."
