Running the Marathon Des Sables, the tough desert race of 250 km, is a dream for many trail runners. But often people think, erroneously, that it is an experience for super men, for athletes. Mattea Geraci has succeeded and she is Finisher at her first Marathon Des Sables. She ranked 2nd V3 arriving just after a French veteran lady.

Tea, TRM Athletes Coordinator & Event Manager, trained hard following the TRM Endurance program, already adopted for the Tor des Geants, a 330 km mountain race.

* How?* With the TRM Desert Program:

➡ Simulating race and terrain conditions

➡ Running on snow and on the beach, with a backpack weighing between 2 and 5 kg

➡ Taking care of the general athletic preparation

➡ Experiencing nutrition and integration

Tea is back home with a new precious medal of the MDS 34th Edition‼
