Stian Angermund (born 27 August 1986) is a Norwegian trail runner and mountain runner who won the 2021 Amazing Thailand World Mountain and Trail Running Championships at the 40km distance.[1]

He has also won the Salomon Golden Trail World Series in 2018 and 2021.[2] Angermund holds the record of the Zegama-Aizkorri trail race. He won two gold medals at the 2016 Skyrunning World Championships held in Lleida, Spain, in the Vertical kilometer and SkyMarathon.[3]

Biography

World Champion in Short Trail Running, November 2022 at the 2021 World Mountain and trail running championships.[1]

In 2017 he won the first edition of the Vertical Kilometer World Circuit.[4] He also won two medals at the Skyrunning European Championships, always in vertical kilometer discipline.

In 2023 Angermund tested positive for the banned diuretic chlorthalidone after winning the Orsières-Champex-Chamonix event at the Ultra-Trail du Mont-Blanc.[5] He denied intentional doping and suggested possible contamination, especially after it was revealed his sample was stored in an official’s home. In late 2024, he accepted a 16-month ban issued by the French Anti-Doping Agency starting from August 2023, allowing him to return to competition in December 2024.[6]
