GALEN REYNOLDS |
What started as an effort to get fit after an MBA lead to an ultra trail running obsession spanning the past 7 years. During this time he has ran some of the most iconic ultras in the world, including the UTMB and Montane Tor des Geants where he has finished 2nd in 2018 and 2019. In 2019 he also broke fellow Montane Athlete Marcus Scotney's Dragon's Back Course Record and won the Montane Cheviot Goat.
Originally from Canada with an ice hockey background, Galen has been able to transfer athletic dexterity into his training regimes, including a mixture of dedication and an upbeat attitude, to compete against the worlds best in long mountain ultras.
"Montane has been my kit of choice since starting to run. Their functional lightweight gear works for me in the most rugged training and race conditions. I am extremely excited to join the team on the cutting edge of trail running gear." |
