What’s better than one Spanish Runner coming to the BTU?
TWO 🇪🇸🇪🇸
We are over the moon that TWO ✌🏽Spanish 🇪🇸 Runners are coming DownUnder 🌏 to the Brisbane Trail Ultra! Trail Running in Spain is MASSIVE. Spain boasts the most trail runners in one country in the World! No wonder they are so STRONG 💪
Firstly, Sara Alonso-Martinez, you can find her on Facebook and Instagram,
@saraalonso5 is a weapon! She just SMASHED the Spartan Trail World Championship, claiming 1st place at the grueling Transgrancanria, finishing in 3:30:40. This impressed the BTU team and we were blown away that the young gun wanted to race the Brisbane Trail Ultra 2022. Sara will be fresh off racing the Mont Blanc Marathon, to then jump straighton a flight to Brisbane. We wish her all the best with her racing.
Shona met Antonio Martinez-Perez, Spartan 2021 Overall Spartan Trail World Championship Winner, at Breakfast at the Hotel in Spain. Antonio suggested that he’d like to travel DownUnder to race BTU 2022! The Kangaroos were what got him! We were again ecstatic when he placed 3rd at Transgrancanaria with a killer time of 3:08:22 within six minutes of the winning male runner, Swedish wildman Sebastian LJUNGDAHL, and within three minutes of Marten BOSTROM. Antonio is a sky-running legend with a depth of experience as you can see in the above Youtube Movie. He will be joining us from Italy, where he will be racing Ultra Trail Laverado. You can find him on Facebook and Instagram @antonio_runner.
Both Sara and Antonio are racing the BTU30. We can’t wait to see what they can do on our course, you can take off 1 hour+ straight away from their Transgrancaria Times, maybe even more as the terrain on the Brisbane Trail Ultra course is way more forgiving. Records may fall. It will be the race to watch!
Good luck to everyone racing this weekend. For all those racing Noosa Ultra Trail and Yandina 5-0, we hope the skies stay blue and you all stay safe.
Happy trails!
Shona and Cora
