Julia Glaus

Julia grew up close to the Swiss Alps, where she developed a deep passion for the mountains. She discovered trail running five years ago while studying in Trondheim, Norway, and quickly grew to love the challenge of moving through alpine terrain.

Now based in Davos, Switzerland, she trains on the surrounding peaks and ridges, focusing on races between 50 and 100 kilometres, particularly in the UTMB World Series.

Her journey gained momentum with a 2nd-place finish at the Swiss Trail Championships, and she continues to explore her potential in longer, technical races. Julia enjoys combining disciplines in her training, such as biking to trailheads or running up ridges to get to the alpine climbing terrain.
