Denisa Dragomir is an accomplished mountain runner from Berevoiești in Romania. She developed her passion for running at the age of 11 in school competitions because she wanted to prove to her cousin, who was part of the school's running team, that she could be just as good – and since then, her drive to succeed has continued unabated.
After winning medals as a junior at 1,500m, 2,000m and 3,000m hurdles, in 2010, at the age of 18 Denisa participated and won her first mountaineering race that brought her qualification to the junior edition of the European Championships of Mountain Running in Sapareva Banya, Bulgaria, where she finished in first place. In 2011, she won the same event, this time in Uludağ, Turkey.
