Juha Laitinen, The Endurance Athlete

Juha Laitinen has accumulated over 20 years of experience in various endurance sports. He originally started with marathons. After that, Laitinen has been participating in triathlon competitions for years, completing nearly 20 full-distance races and numerous half-distance races. Among his notable achievements are two Finnish championships in Ironman competitions. He has also earned medals in other events, such as duathlon, off-road triathlon, and winter triathlon.
This year, he has achieved impressive times in marathons, such as 2:37. Laitinen has been running trails for several years and excelled in them. He made history at the Himos Trail trail running event by securing his fifth consecutive victory in the 52-kilometer Double Extreme category with 1730 meters of elevation gain, finishing in 4.28.
His training remains diverse, including activities like skiing and mountain biking. His future goals are centered around personal competition driven by his feelings. He intends to continue aiming for strong results in full-distance triathlons and possibly marathons as well. Trail running seamlessly complements his objectives.
Juha's persistent and determined attitude towards training and achieving goals serves as an inspiration to us at Fenix as well. This inspiration motivates us to develop headlamps that cater to the needs and preferences of professionals like Laitinen. His training is illuminated by our test-winning headlamp, Fenix HM65R SUPERRAPTOR 2, providing the best lighting and long-lasting usage for training throughout the year.
