Yes, he is fiercely competitive and one of the revelations from 2023 in trail running. Although he’s been known as a skyrunning competitor, he discovered himself as an ultra runner. With an amazing start of the Transgrancanaria where he came out with a 4th place a bit later he confirmed his form with a top 5 place at the MiM peñagolosa trail. His victory of the CDH Val d’aran By Utmb made his season complete.
Raul Butaci a thoughtful, introspective, quirky, and often silly individual who is tight with hes family, loves animals and really loves the freedom of running on mountain trails.
Yet, the 38-year-old BigK runner from tornabous in Spain is restarting his season at the Don Inthanon by Utmb in Thailand where he will participate at the 100K distance. In the elefant distance he will meet runners like Damien Humbert,Yanqiao Yun, Pere Aurell , Jordi Gamito and probably the favorite Ludovic Pommeret.
We wish Raul a good race.
