Maite Maiora

IF I SET MYSELF A CHALLENGE, NOTHING CAN STOP ME

BIOGRAPHY

My name is Maite, and I’m from Spain. The mountains hold a special place in my heart, and spending time there brings me immense joy. I spend time in this environment to train and pursue my dreams. I have spent my whole life close to the mountains, but for me, my first introduction to trail running was when I stood on the podium. Since then, I have tried to combine pleasure and competition.

Describe Näak in 3 words?

To describe Näak, I would say motivation, energy and natural products.

What's your biggest dream?

Athletically, I have realized my biggest dream, but now I'm curious about winning UTMB and experiencing that achievement alongside my other dreams.

What are your favorite Näak products and why?

I love the Waffles, Gels which I tried for the first time at UTMB, and Bars. I also like the Purees. They were a lifesaver in the last kilometers in Chamonix and made a big difference in my performance. These products fuel my performance with sustainable energy from natural ingredients.
