Raoul Raus

About

Raoul Raus is a 23-year-old Belgian trail runner who has emerged as one of the most exciting young talents on the European mountain racing circuit. His most dramatic performance came at Marathon du Mont-Blanc 2025, where he finished 2nd despite suffering a violent fall during the final descent into Chamonix — a result that demonstrated extraordinary resilience and competitive spirit under pressure. He has also claimed victories at the Eiger Ultra Trail 2025 Trail Surprise (15km) and the Championnat du Canigo 2025 (33.4km/2,150m). His rapid ascent through the UTMB World Series circuit at a young age makes him one of the names to watch in European mountain trail racing.
