ELSA POLYCARPE
TRAIL RUNNER
Elsa doesn’t just run trails - she owns them. Originally from the South of France and now based in Hong Kong, Elsa is training with precision and purpose for the 2025–2026 trail season. With a coach in her corner and PRs on her radar, she’s dialed in and ready to perform.
After building speed in short-distance races, Elsa made the leap to longer distances - and made it count. In 2024, she took 1st place at the Hong Kong 25k Coastal Trail Challenge, followed by a gold medal at the 25k Wonders of Tai Mo Shan. She kept the momentum going with a category win at the Action Asia Sprint Repulse Bay, proving she’s not just chasing finish lines - she’s setting them.
As part of Asia Trail Girls, Elsa runs with a community that celebrates strength, solidarity, and showing up for one another. Every run, every climb, every race - it’s all part of a bigger journey. And she’s just getting started.
