About

Katarzyna was active in sports from a young age and participated in running competitions. At the age of 13, she joined an athletics club and trained systematically until she was 17. After a break, she returned to sports in 2016, with trail running becoming a central passion in her life. A friend took her to a race in the forest, and she fell in love with running on nature trails. The trail running community and the close connection to nature captivated her, and she sought out more races in the mountains. Today, she is a mountain running coach, runs her own business, and is part of the international On Trail Team.

For Katarzyna, running in the mountains and being in nature brings her inner peace, balance, and a new perspective on life. It helped her realize what truly matters: simplicity, connection to nature, and self-worth. The mountains inspire her and take her to special places that fill her with humility.

For the future development of her sport, Katarzyna hopes that despite the professionalization of trail running, its core values will not be forgotten: respect for nature and other people. She wants the positive emotions and curiosity that draw so many to the mountains to be prioritized over competition.

Katarzyna’s greatest wish is to be happy – which, for her, means being healthy, having her loved ones be healthy, continuing to run actively, discovering the world, and meeting valuable people.
