Jacob Couture

My name is Jacob Couture, and I’m from Lanaudière, Quebec. I discovered running about 5 years ago when I was living in Banff, Alberta. At the same time I discovered running, I also discovered trail running and immediately fell in love with the sport and the community.

When I returned to Quebec in 2022, I signed up for my first trail race, the UTHC 42k St-Siméon. Since then, I’ve done the 42 St-Siméon again (2023), and last year, I completed the UTHC 65k, where I finished in second place.

The UTHC holds a special place for me as it was my first trail event, and every year I look forward to returning. This year, I’m taking on the 125k in search of a new challenge.
