Biography

Aline Camboulives was born in Valence, (France), and began her sporting career as a cyclist[3] from 1998 to 2003[4]. She was a member of the French team in 2002 and came 20th in the women's Tour de France. The same year, she won the French Women's Road Cycling Cup. On June 19th, 2003, during the penultimate stage of the Tour de la Drôme, she falls, causing a fracture of the femoral head which imposes six months of rehabilitation. She temporarily stopped the competition to devote herself to her professional activity[5].

She returns to competition in running, considering the training less time-consuming than cycling and therefore more compatible with running her own business[6]. She soon experienced successes on 10km, trail, mountain marathons, half-marathon[7] and the marathon[8],[9],[10],[11].

Since 2006, Aline Camboulives has appeared on virtually all the podiums of the great classics of mountain racing: Zermatt Marathon, (the World Championships in long distance mountain races on 4 July 2015) which she won three times on three occasions, Sierre-Zinal[12],[13], the Jungfrau Marathon[14].
