Gaëtan Laine

A neurosurgeon by profession and an ultratrail runner by passion, he is someone who constantly pushes the boundaries of his physical and mental limits. Through his dedication to the trail, he seeks not just personal achievement but also a deeper purpose — using his journey to inspire, help others, and make a positive impact. His relentless drive is fueled by the belief that challenges, whether on the operating table or in the wilderness, can lead to meaningful deeds that extend far beyond oneself.

Running

I am primarily someone who doesn't give up easily and who sees everything positively. I run recreationally 60-100 km/week. The Etixx products are a fantastic asset for my (now much less) injury-prone body. I am very proud to be a part of this top team!
