Hi! 👋
If you’re new here, we thought we’d introduce ourselves.
We’re Katja and Keijo, the founders of Stolt Running.
Keijo is the person you’re most likely to chat with if you have a question about your order. He also works closely with many of our athletes whilst training for his own ultra races, and sometimes even delivers orders in person around London, by running them to you ;) He’s not much into social media, preferring to meet and support runners in real life and is currently training for a Backyard Ultra (Ben Runs Trails how we looking buddy? 😅)
Katja looks after the business as a whole, the brand, product development, brand partnerships, race collaborations and, well… a bit of everything else. She’s currently training for another Ironman (not her first!) proudly repping 10IronWomen 🫡 and the big one in January 2027: the Spine Race, where she’ll be taking on the Challenger South supported by Camino Ultra , and coaches Paula Bedford David_Camino_Ultra_Bone 🙏
Together, we design every Stolt running pack and test new ideas with our Stolt Endurance Lab – a brilliant group of dedicated distance runners who help us refine every detail before a product reaches you.
We’re proud to still be an independent, “founder-run business” (pun intended 😄). Every decision we make starts with one question: will this help runners?
We’ll be heading back to Finland, where we’re originally from, for a few weeks in August, so expect plenty of Nordic landscapes, training updates and a behind-the-scenes look at where many of our ideas begin.
Thanks for being here, and if you see us at a race, come and say hello!
