Biography

Jornet was born in Lleida in Catalonia. He started ski mountaineering in 1999 and competed for the first time at the La Molina race of the Spanish Cup in 2000. In 2003 he became a junior member of the Spanish national ski mountaineering team, and has raced as a senior since 2007. He is a member of the international Dynafit team[citation needed] and lives in Puigcerdà.

For his achievements in the "junior" class ski mountaineering team, he won the Catalan sports award ([Premi d’honor d’esport català] Error: {{Lang}}: text has italic markup (help)) in 2004, 2005 and 2006.[citation needed]

Jornet has been recognised as an elite athlete since 2004[1] by the Catalan and Spanish sports councils ([Consell Català de l’Esport] Error: {{Lang}}: text has italic markup (help) and [Consejo Superior de Deportes] Error: {{Lang}}: text has italic markup (help)).[2]

In 2005 he set a new course record of 2:30:57 for the race to the 4,015 metre summit of the Dôme de Neige des Écrins.[3] He was World Champion in the Buff SkyRunner World Series in 2007,[1] 2008 and 2009[4] becoming the youngest athlete to win this honour.[1]

His sister Naila Jornet Burgada also competes in ski mountaineering events.[citation needed]
