Considered today as one of the best female runners on the planet, Mira Rai has a unique background. A child soldier during the civil war, the Nepalese discovered trail running by chance. A discipline that changed the story of her life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

June 2015, on the 80 km Mont Blanc race. The field is strong on this reference event in the world of trail running but it is an almost unknown name that emerges in first place of the women's race after 12:32 of effort. Mira Rai is 26 years old, she is Nepalese and is running the first major race of her career in Europe, the most competitive continent in the discipline. With a 22 minute lead over her closest pursuer, Mira Rai strikes a blow in the world of high level racing and comes back from a very long way, she who held a gun in her arms 12 years earlier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
