Aurore Dacier de Biasis

Aurore Dacier is a native of France and has been based out of Singapore for the past 2 years and has fast become one of the best ultra runners in the region.

We catch up with her following her emphatic win at TransLantau and 4th position overall.

We cover:

  • Her background and journey into trail running, how she grew up in the outdoors but with no specific sport.

  • Her day job as a lawyer and how do you plan training around work, how she works with her coach and plans her training.

  • Her races since being based in Asia and impression of the trail running scene.

  • Her fascination with Hong Kong and specifically Lantau having raced there 3 times. 

  • How she prepared for TransLantau100 this year, her first 100km. How she prepared for the distance. How did the race go?

  • Future plans with Asia Trail Master races and CCC in Chamonix next year.

  • We discuss the female competition here in Asia and how she thinks about inspiring other female runners to give it a go.

We also catch up with Chris Timms to discuss the Lam Dong Trail in Vietnam and Malaysia Ultra Trail this weekend.
