Marc Lauenstein (born September 15, 1980 in Cormondréche, Neuchâtel) is a Swiss orienteering competitor and runner. He received a silver medal on the long distance at the 2005 World Orienteering Championships in Aichi, and again in Aarhus in 2006.[1] He earned a bronze medal in 2005 as member of the Swiss relay team.[1]
Lauenstein won the Sierre-Zinal race in 2013,[2] the Pikes Peak Marathon in 2014[3] and the Marathon du Mont Blanc in 2015.[4]
In 2015, Lauenstein became the first runner to complete the Otter Run on South Africa's Otter Trail in under four hours.[5]
He won the Three Peaks Race in 2016 in a time not far outside the long-standing course record, despite snowy conditions on the peaks.[6]
