In 2026, Matchy opens a new chapter: that of a ambassador program, dedicated to athletes who fully embody our values: pushing beyond one's limits, authenticity and passion for ultra-running.

It is with great pride that we welcome Camille Albisser within this adventure. Already noted this year for its 3rd place women's race at the Atlas Mountain Race 2026, In one of the most demanding races in the world, she sets no limits for herself. Her energy, determination, and strategic approach make her a true source of inspiration for all long-distance enthusiasts.

Discover his background, his performances and his vision of ultra-endurance, and immerse yourself in the adventure that takes her from the mountains of Morocco to the preparation for her next major challenges.

An inspiring journey

Camille didn't grow up in the ultra-distance world. She discovered cycling during the Covid period, initially as a space of freedom. Very quickly, the desire to go further took hold.

My initial learning about sleep and effort management in ultra-distance running came primarily from events like the RAF1000. It was in this type of format that I discovered how to organize my breaks, manage fatigue, and find a rhythm over several days. These experiences then led me to even longer adventures, up to 4,000 km races like the NorthCape 4000, 4,000 km between Italy and the North Cape covered in 12 days, where the route is imposed and the challenge becomes optimizing each day of progress.

Since then, his progress has been constant. Longer formats. More demanding terrain. A more strategic approach. And always this desire to share her experience with the ultra community, through exchanges and podcasts, where she addresses without filter the realities of long distance: nutrition, logistics, mental management.

3rd in the Atlas Mountain Race - An exceptional performance 🇲🇦🥉

L'Atlas Mountain Race 2026 is an extraordinary race: 1,350 km through the mountains of Morocco, 25,000 m of elevation gain, without assistance or organized resupply, with a spectacular finish in Essaouira. Every decision and every effort counts, and knowing how to manage fatigue and strategy is crucial.

Camille tells us:
"The most beautiful yet brutal challenge I've ever faced. Dantean conditions: from -10 to +30 degrees Celsius, from the snow-covered Atlas Mountains to the desert. I cherish the images of the most starry sky I've ever seen, sunrises of incredible power and color, and the dozens of smiles from locals who welcomed me with open arms."

At this level of expectation, nothing is left to chance. In ultra-distance running, equipment is not a comfort: it is a performance factor. For this Moroccan race, we selected the components best suited to temperature variations and long hours in the saddle. Tested in real-world conditions. No compromises.

His return is straightforward:
“I put the Altitude bib shorts’ pad to the test, and it lived up to my expectations. It provided lasting comfort despite all those hours in the saddle and the little rest time between each day.” My essential piece from this AMR? The merino baselayer that I literally wore constantly. For warmth at night, and to protect me from the sun while still regulating my temperature during the day.»

In events where every micro-decision influences what follows, reliability becomes a silent force.

Towards TCR - the next adventure

After her remarkable performance at the Atlas Mountain Race, Camille is now preparing for the Transcontinental Race (TCR), often considered one of the most difficult and iconic cycling races in the world.

The TCR is a self-supported ultra-distance race across Europe, without set stages. Runners must complete several mandatory checkpoints, but they choose their own route. Every decision, from the route taken to sleep and nutrition management, directly influences performance. The editions generally cover 3,200 to 4,200 km, with days that can reach 400 km, and only a small percentage of participants arrive within the allotted time.

This challenge demands a unique combination of physical endurance, complete self-sufficiency, and mental strategy. It represents much more than a race: it's an extreme human adventure, where every pedal stroke counts.

For Camille, this experience will be a new step in her development in ultra-endurance. Drawing on her experience in Morocco, she approaches the TCR with preparation, strategy, and determination, ready to take on an even more demanding challenge and share this extraordinary journey with the community.
