  • I had a dream of taking part in UTMB, the Ultra Trail Du Mont Blanc and materialised it. What comes after you reach your utlimate goal? I learned key lessons during this journey. I learned that the soul is stronger than the mind and the body. My vision is to share these learnings through my adventures. Follow me in this film to see how my life completely changed after UTMB.

    Had a good 50k trail yesterday and thought to myself ''I'm feeling way too fresh being this far in!'' after the 40k mark. I have done quite a few ultras by now but that one felt really peculiar. Then it just hit me like a hammer on those last 5k and I easily lost 15 minutes and 6 ranking spots right there.
    I guess the lesson is: No matter how good you feel, you're not done until you've actually finished. It's easy to get excited when things are going well, and even easier to get dishearted when they aren't.
    Edit: That's a really cool-looking trophy for that marathon! Something different, for sure.

      @@hustensaftvernichter3785 haha not yet i have the same issue as you. Swimming is not my forte by far and I think i would miss the adventure dimension i get in trail running (mountains, landscape etc)

      @@rafaelhidalgo Well, maybe to the Xtri norseman. You get to be surrounded by landscape *and* get to be a real-life version of ''The Walking Dead'' for a week after... Win-Win?!
      Swimming is tough stuff to get into, for sure. I find it to be totally unforgiving compared to biking or running.
