Introducing Dennis Pemsel
Dennis, a chemical and bioengineer from Germany, has been a passionate trail runner since 2014. Besides running, he also has a penchant for brewing beer and climbing.
Since 2015, Dennis has regularly taken part in international trail events. Since his stay in the USA, he approaches the runs with more fun and also likes to lend a hand as a volunteer. 2018 and 2019 were the most exciting years for him so far. With races like the Eiger E101, Leadville 100, MIUT, TDS or Tor des Geant, Dennis has fallen for ultra distances and has been looking for new challenges ever since. No wonder that after the Spine Race he now has his eye on the Montane Lapland Arctic Ultra.

"I've been using Montane products on all my adventures and competitions since 2017. I love the combination of lightness and durability that is necessary in harsh environments. It allows me to focus on running without neglecting safety."
