Beautiful video! Thank you so much for the precious info. I did the race in the last few days and ended up dnf despite having watched your detailed video several times. My race was going well, everything was going as planned. At 7:30 pm I was in Jochberg despite a strong storm caught on the ridge. I was fine but I needed to rest. I was counting on finding the planned rest area at the refreshment point but it had not been set up. I wanted to sleep for an hour and then face the climb and the second night rested and energetic. Everything around was wet and I could not lie down on the ground so I went back on the trail hoping to find something to rest at the next refreshment point. I retreated to Jochberger Wildalm because I was sleepy and there was nothing to rest in sheltered from the wind and cold. The very kind lady at the refreshment point had given me her camp bed, I tried to lie down but being outside I was getting shivers. I called the organizer to inform me of the withdrawal and they told me that they could not come up to pick me up and so I walked down the road to Jochberg to take the shuttle. I am saddened by what happened, I would certainly have finished the race if I could have rested. I did not feel like spending a second night without sleep. Having seen in your video the difficulties of the route with the bad weather that was there I considered that safety comes first. I contested the organization for the lack of a rest area, foreseen in the regulation. However, I have the wonderful experience I had during this race up until the withdrawal, I really enjoyed the route. See you soon and congratulations again.

It is a tough race. The two times I did it, only 10 people finished.
great video explaining the details of the race. was there with you last year and ca confirm everything :)
Good job, man!
Saw that. Checked the stats and thought: looks harder than utmb 😂 kudos!
I actually think it is. I will know in September and will comment.
@@RunningRaceReview so how do you compare it to UTMB ?
