🥈 30 KM. 2ND PLACE AT . 🇹🇭

Usually, is the one getting athletes ready for race day. This time, it was his turn to pin on a bib — and he came away with 2nd place after 30 km in Thailand’s heat and humidity. 🔥

A pretty good day out for Coach GG.

And for those who’ve been thinking about joining us on the trails… 👀

Let’s just say Trail Running Factory might be back in Thailand for a camp in April. 🇹🇭

We’ll share more soon. For now, shhh… 🤫

🏃‍♂️ FINISHING STRONG MEANS MORE THAN A RESULT.

A big congratulations to our Trail Running Factory own Tomas Ivoška on another successful outing at Trail Kuršių Nerija — his third time running one of his favourite races in Lithuania. 🇱🇹👏

In Tomas’s own words:

“Trail Kuršių Nerija is one of my favorite races in Lithuania, and this was my third time running it.
This year I understood that I don’t want to chase results or turn running into a second job. For me, running is about joy, being in nature, and spending time with like-minded people.
This race everything went smoothly. Unlike my last few races where I had to really ‘work’. I finished with a smile, and my body still feels strong. I feel amazingly 💯 Thanks coach Gediminas Grinius ♥️, I learned the most from you - just observing you and running together, you are a great example! This year was up and down, but I am happy how it ends because I feel strong where I stand and what I want to do next.”

That’s a valuable lesson for all of us.

Progress isn’t always about running faster or going further. Sometimes it’s finding the balance, enjoying the process and finishing with more energy than you expected.

Well done, Tomas. Here’s to more happy miles with the TRF family! ❤️

🏔️ SKYRUNNING IS A DIFFERENT BEAST.

A big congratulations to TRF’s Mindaugas Kniazevas on taking on the Fiemme Ultra Sky👏

As Mindaugas learned the hard way:

“Don’t underestimate Skyrace just like I did. Typical trail running does not apply here.”

Steep climbs. Technical terrain. A whole different kind of challenge.

That’s the beauty of trail running — there’s always something new to learn, and every race makes you a little wiser.

Well done, Mindaugas! Another experience in the books, and another story for the Trail Running Factory family. 💪

Two attempts weren’t enough. This time, Michaël Poirier got it done! 🇨🇦👏

Huge congratulations to Michael, part of our Trail Running Factory family, on finally conquering the Bromont Ultra - Trail running 80K +3332m!

In his own words:

“Third time’s the charm! 🏁 Finally finished the Bromont Ultra 80K! Experience finally paid off. Huge thanks to Coach GG aka Gediminas Grinius for the training and tips, and to Bruno Gobeil & Vincent for the race support! Until next time!”

This is what TRF is all about. Athletes supporting athletes, sharing the tough days and celebrating the finish lines together. 🤝

Well done, Michael! The whole TRF family is cheering for you. 💪

“What's the best way to celebrate two years of running? By running Trail Kuršių Nerija — the most beautiful trail in my country! I chose 70K, so I had plenty of time to contemplate why I run. 😃

Every trail brings you new lessons to learn.

Nr. 1 I've learned that it's better not to have expectations on these long trails. I was hoping that the hardest part would be running on the beach, but I didn't expect the last 30K, when your legs are already beaten on the sand, to be so challenging. And it takes mental energy to adapt to that reality. So I wish for myself in the future to be more here and now, with both body and mind and to accept unknown.

Nr. 2 If you struggle, it doesn't mean you're failing. When things get hard, it doesn't mean you're not doing well. I realized this only at the finish line — we all had to face hard moments. It's part of our ultra journey. That's why on trails we learn so much about ourselves and life. That's why we keep coming back.

So I will definitely come back to these amazing trails!“ – joyfully shared her findings Sigita Tyliai after successfully finished race.

Congrats Sigita!

⛰️🌲🌊

Mountains in the morning.
Atlantic views around the corner.
Forests, ridges, levadas and trails that keep making you stop and look.

And you don’t need to be an ultra runner to enjoy it.

You can run.
You can jog.
You can hike.

We’re bringing together people who simply enjoy being in the mountains.

If you’ve got a friend who should be escaping winter with you, send them this.

And if that friend is you… registration is open

A big congratulations to TRF coach Gediminas Grinius on his 1st place in the age category and 8th overall at .

“Faster than expected. Tougher than expected.

The pace was good. Then the cramps arrived. Multiple times.

Not exactly part of the race plan.

But sometimes the most useful races are the ones that don’t go to plan.

As a coach, I’m always telling athletes that fatigue is information.

When the legs start hurting, don’t panic.
Ask why.
Adjust what you can.
And learn what happens when you keep moving.

This race was a good opportunity to test exactly that.

How far can you go when the legs are sore, cramping and clearly not having the best day?

Further than expected.

Pleased with the result.
Even more pleased with what the race taught me.

Because every race is data.

The smart part is knowing what to do with it.”
