Scarpa running team ready for Torx
On Friday, September 8, 2023, the Scarpa Running Team will be among the Mont Blanc peaks in the Aosta Valley ready to tackle the Torx.
The team
A top-notch team for the team Scarpa, which this year boasts the names of Emma Stuart, Jules Henri Gabioud, Luca Papi and Daniel Jung. Italian naturalized Frenchman Luca Papi and Swissman Jules Henri Gabioud, ex-aequo winners in 2021 of TOR450 – Tor des Glaciers, will once again compete this year in an endurance test reserved only for two hundred runners, selected to tackle the region’s as yet unexplored routes and ridges. British ultramarathoner Emma Stuart will participate in the 330-kilometer “classic,” the Tor des Géants. For TOR130 – Tot Dret, a 130-kilometer trail with 12,000 meters of positive elevation gain starting in Gressoney and ending in Courmayeur, will feature Italian Daniel Jung.
What the athletes will wear
Athletes in the race will wear the Spin Planet model, a cushioned shoe with strong durability, ideal for long distances. The concept of green and love for the mountains is never put on the back burner by the company, in fact the upper, midsole and sole are made of recycled material. The perfect shoe for running the Torx!
