Sébastien Chaigneau discusses new gear from TNF and takes Barrabes emplyees on run through Collserola

A few weeks ago, the French trail runner, Sébastien Chaigneau from The North Face team, visited us at our Barrabes store in Barcelona. He spent the day training with Barrabes employees from the store, offering them his advice and explaining the materials that they tested out throughout the day.

Sébastien, lover of Ultradistance, has won some of the most challenging and competitive races in the world including the Ultra Trail Mt. Fuji in Japan, the Hard Rock 100 in the United States, the Transgrancanaria in Spain, the Olympus Marathon in Greece, and the Libyan Challenge in Libya. He has also finished top three in prominent races such as the Lavaredo Ultra Trail and the Ultra Trail Mont Blanc.

With him visiting our store, we took advantage of the opportunity and recorded a video where he spoke about new TNF gear and his running career, in addition to filming him in action as he enjoyed the beautiful views that can be found running along the trails in Collserola, Barcelona.

We hope that you enjoy the video!
