Runit was born from sport

We don't watch events from the outside. We live them.
We've stood on the start line, we've crossed finish lines, and we know the details matter more than they seem.
Because custom medals, technical t-shirts and everything a participant or athlete receives are not just objects: they're part of the experience, the effort, the discipline and the achievement.
This custom gear isn't forgotten, it's kept as a memento, as a symbol.
It becomes a personal trophy.

The Runit story

A project with soul

I'm María Belén Gimeno: a commercial engineer (business administration), MBA, athlete and someone passionate about movement in all its forms.

For more than 8 years I worked in retail, especially in textiles and sportswear, collaborating with brands and suppliers who taught me the products, the processes and the real needs of this market in depth.

But beyond the professional side, there was always something personal that connected me to this world: sport.

As an athlete, I know that what we receive at a race isn't just objects. They're part of the experience, the effort and the achievements.

It was exactly at the crossroads of my professional background and my love of sport that RUNIT was born: a project of my own, bold and full of purpose.

My goal was always to build a different company. Close, committed and able to truly accompany each client through the whole process, understanding that behind every event there is a brand, an experience and a lot of expectations riding on every detail.

As an athlete and a user of what we offer, I can say it with certainty: at RUNIT, you can feel the difference.

Because this project has soul, it has courage and it's made with all my heart.

Our essence

Details that become trophies

At RUNIT we understand that quality isn't an extra: it's a fundamental part of how an event is lived and remembered. And we know that behind every race there are brands and producers who need to execute with precision and no margin for error.

That's why, more than delivering products, we design solutions that elevate the whole experience: for the participant, for the brand and for the event.

We believe in details that become trophies. In products that represent achievements. And in events that leave a mark that goes far beyond crossing the finish line.
