UTMB Italy 2025 — Daniela’s Experience

“The whole process was amazing. Their support was great the whole time. I realised I had sent them the wrong form to fill out, they noticed that, so they gave me an alternative. And the turnaround was great aswell, so I super recommend them”

L’Étape du Tour 2025 – Stu’s Experience

“I stumbled upon Fit Certify’s website, placed my order, and within six hours I had my certificate. I uploaded it to the L’Étape website and it was accepted instantly. Super easy to use — I’ll definitely be using it again. My GP didn’t want to issue a certificate, but with Fit Certify it was simple and stress-free.”

"Reasonable fee, easy to navigate"

“I entered the L’Eroica cycle ride in Tuscany, looking to ride the 81 km Gallo Nero route. UK riders require a medical certificate to confirm that they are fit to ride the route. I found Fit Certify online, having reviewed the online options. The Fit Certify website was easy to navigate. I was able to enter my medical history and then submitted with the fee which I thought was reasonable bearing in mind the time it would take to review my medical details and consider in the context of the event. I was sent the certificate later the same day which I uploaded to the L’Eroica website. The L’Eroica administrators accepted the certificate so I am good to go!”
