ABOUT ME
I am Ida, 27 years old and a passionate trail runner. I feel most at home in the Alps, love the challenge, nature and sport. I originally come from track and road running, got into trail running by a lucky coincidence and now compete with the best trail runners in the world, both on a national and international level. I love to just tie on my running shoes and push myself to my physical limits. When I'm not on a trail in the mountains, I study architecture in Innsbruck.
CHASING IDA
"Chasing Ida" is a modern documentary series that follows German trail and ultra runner Ida-Sophie Hegemann through her running season.
Episode 1 Racing 110 km to victory in Innsbruck | IATF 2024
The season of 2024 was already rough, but the Innsbruck Alpine Trail Festival was a race I really wanted to do. So here it is, the first episode of Chasing Ida.
I have already had the honor of talking about my running experiences and successes in a few podcasts. Since May 2023 I am hosting my German podcast: Höhenmeter pro Kilometer. Together with Kimi, I talk about the versatility of trail running, we answer your questions and give insights into our everyday lives as professional athletes - unfiltered and honest.
