Why Altra? 🏃‍♂️

“I was always worried to go to zero drop but was constantly hearing about all the benefits and amazing reviews so I took the leap and I couldn’t be more thankful. It changed my form, increased my speed, increased my ankle strength, I no longer have issues with my feet and toes and the wide toe box allows for all the swelling involved in ultras. Not only that but I was constantly frustrated with brands durability being terrible and I am yet to outrun a pair of Altras, their durability is unmatched.”

Favourite Shoe? 👟

Road:
Vanish Carbon - “An extremely light and fast road shoe that has helped me hit all my PB’s.”

Trail:
Mont Blanc Carbon - “Amazing traction and speed. Great for technical single track trails with the bonus of being lightweight and having some carbon to add speed.”

Your best tip for new runners? 🔥

“Stop thinking about pace and start listening to your body, enjoy the run. Everyone gets caught up on pace and constantly looking at their watch. But once you get out there into nature, slow down and take in what your body is allowing you to do and everything will fall into place, and you’ll truly find the beauty of what running is.”

Tasmania showed its truest form last weekend for the launch of the Experience Wild 3+. 🍃

Overcast skies. Rain-soaked forest. Trails running wet, muddy and technical from the first step to the last.

Blue Derby delivered everything Tasmania is known for - steep climbs, fast descents and forest trails that never quite dry. As the descents got steeper, led a downhill technique session right where it matters most: On real terrain, at real speed. ⛰️

Mud, roots and slick rock.

Real conditions.
Real performance.

WILD SESSION // TASMANIA 🌿

To launch the new Experience Wild 3+, we brought together 10 of Tasmania’s strongest trail
runners and dropped them straight into the deep end at Blue Derby ⛰

Steep climbs. Steeper descents. Forest floor, bush bash, dirt, slick rock slabs and tunnels
carved through the mountains. Tasmania showed up in its truest form - raw, technical and
unapologetically wild. The session more than lived up to its name.

Nights spent deep in the trees at . Mornings chasing new lines. Descents
that demand full focus and commitment - exactly the kind of terrain this shoe was built for.

Good people.
Technical trails.
Wild miles.

We can’t wait for more.
