  • I was privileged to spend the last week of August catching up with, and filming the Irish running in Chamonix. I barely scratched the surface, but I did get a flavour, of the Irish experience competing across the various distances at this years UTMB event. I may have bitten off more than I could chew but I am very happy to have had the opportunity to gather together some of the stories and bring them together here as a memory of:
    THE IRISH IN CHAMONIX 2022
    Note: This video was originally uploaded on 23Dec2022, I then spotted a typo that I couldn't live with and so made the correction and re-uploaded on 29Dec2022.

      Thanks Alan, I had to put a little extra effort in because other people were involved 😉

      Thanks Tadeusz, yeah, if you’re into trail running you simply can’t beat Chamonix during UTMB week. Really happy to have this record of the event out there for all to see. Don’t think I would do it again though…it would be easier to run the race 😀

      @@filmmytrailrun lol. As long as you still record I don't mind. I could be completely insane an apply for OCC in 2024!! Don't even want to think how many runs up the big sugar loaf is equivalent to those 58km in the Alps....

    Hey Dave! Great video, super professional. Met you at the top of Djouce on New Years Day - you've gained a new subsciber and look forward to great content in the future.

      Aha, good man for looking me up Graham. We might even make a trail runner out of you yet. I’ve been dragging my heels with the edit of a race I did in Cape Town in November. Funny that I seem to have to go back to work in my real job before I can go back to work in my past time job. Thanks for subscribing 🙏

      Yeah and all the while they were capturing me too, I only found out afterwards. Made a good addition to the video though 😂😂

    Well done, Dave, on the recording of an amazing group of Irish people competing on the world stage at Chamonix ! It would be nice to see them get more attention back home. It's inspiring stuff ! Just what we need at this moment in time. Congratulations to all competitors, especially the 2 men who broke through the 20 hour barrier ! Thanks, Dave, I enjoyed the escape to beautiful Chamonix !

      Thanks Murs, I think I’d rather run the race than take on a challenge like that again 😂😂

      It was a new departure for you doing the one to one interviews like that. You behaved like you were an old hand at it ! Top job !

      Thanks Paul, yeah I had a blast but man it was a lot of work. I think I’ll stick to filming myself in future 😀
