ABOUT
EMOTION ALPINE is a trail running and adventure academy: Become a better runner and progress to achieve your goals. Avoid injuries, become stronger and more self-reliant in the mountains. In short, get the tools to manage your trail running and mountain activities in general, reach your full potential, and thrive !
EMOTION ALPINE is the leading trail running training specialist in Chamonix . Created by Olivier G., a certified trail guide and runner with a passion for the peaks , he tackles over 200,000 meters of elevation gain each year, driven solely by the joy of running. From the most beautiful trails in the trail running capital to the most incredible views of the Mont Blanc glaciers, you'll experience rare moments in a runner's life.
A lover of wide open spaces, always dreaming ahead of great journeys.
"Always eager to learn in many areas, I'm passionate about everything related to training. It's a necessity, because sport isn't in my blood! After finishing last (yes, last!) in my first competition as a child and accumulating running-related injuries as an adult, I dedicated myself 100% to studying this sport. Through EMOTION ALPINE, I share what I wish I had learned earlier with runners, so that everyone can experience powerful moments in the mountains and achieve their goals."
Running, training and ski mountaineering are, for me, ways to experience intense outdoor adventures.
Having been successively a mountain biker, mountaineer, globetrotter and of course mountain runner, I now thrive in a fusion of skills to carry out great technical crossings: Spirit of discovery, endurance, immersion in the mountains and autonomy.
With EMOTION ALPINE and in my profession as a Mountain Guide, I am committed to sharing and passing on what motivates me as a practitioner:
Experience the most beautiful spots -> Mountain aesthetics and running!
Providing the keys to a healthy approach to trail running, in pursuit of harmonious development and respect for one's body.
Understanding the mountain by developing one's skills.
Learn about Alpine biodiversity.
