Pour écouter 5.000 ans d'Histoire en une fois, sans pub et avec les Bonus :https://m.audiomeans.fr/s/S-tavkjvmo Aujourd'hui, retour sur le 16 juillet 1965, jour de l'inauguration du Tunnel du Mont-Blanc. Ce jour-là, le Général de Gaulle et le président italien Giuseppe Saragat se retrouvent au cœur des Alpes pour inaugurer le Tunnel du Mont-Blanc. L'idée remonte à l'après-guerre. La France et l'Italie imaginent une liaison directe entre Chamonix et le Val d'Aoste. Une convention est donc signée en 1953 et les travaux débutent six ans plus tard, en 1959. Ils seront longs, complexes et coûteront la vie à 21 ouvriers. Trois ans plus tard, les équipes françaises et italiennes se rejoignent sous la montagne. Ceci nous amène donc à ce 16 juillet 1965. Après plus de dix ans de préparation, le tunnel est enfin prêt. Long de presque 12 kilomètres, il relie Chamonix à Courmayeur, sous le plus haut sommet d'Europe. Il devient alors le plus long tunnel routier du monde. Rapidement, le succès est au rendez-vous. En un an, plus d'un demi-million de véhicules l'empruntent. Ce chiffre ne fera qu'augmenter. Dans les années 90, près de deux millions de véhicules y passent chaque année, dont une part importante de poids lourds. Mais en 1999, un incendie met un coup d'arrêt à ce tableau. Le feu fait 39 victimes. L'ampleur du drame met en lumière des failles majeures dans les systèmes de sécurité. Le tunnel reste fermé pendant trois ans, le temps d'une refonte complète. Aujourd'hui encore, le tunnel du Mont-Blanc reste un axe stratégique entre le nord et le sud de l'Europe. A demain dans TIME SHOT pour une nouvelle Minute Histoire. Hébergé par Audiomeans.

They fire a gun at exactly 12 hours. If you're not across the line by then, it doesn't matter how close you are, your race is over. That's Comrades, and this week we sit down with four-time finisher Steph Donaldson to unpack what actually gets you through 90km of South African road, from fuelling disasters to the strangers who talk you off the ledge in the final 20K. Then Rob Foster debriefs his first-ever triathlon at Challenge Roth in Germany, admitting exactly where his own prep let him down on the run. And Rob Jones brings us inside the Chamonix training camp, on why stripping the pace pressure out of a session makes people run better, not worse. It's a long one, but a good one. Three athletes, three very different days, and the same lesson underneath all of them: showing up matters more than the metrics.

Trente minutes suspendues au-dessus de Chamonix, entre ciel et vallée, loin du bruit des lignes d'arrivée. Dans ce format original de l'Interview Télécabine, enregistrée à l'occasion du marathon du Mont-Blanc, deux trajectoires de l'ultra-trail se croisent : celle de Théo Détienne, vainqueur du 90 km du Mont-Blanc l'an dernier, et celle de Clément Lalba, ancien cycliste semi-professionnel devenu l'une des révélations du trail running français.Entre deux montées, les langues se délient. Théo revient sur l'abandon qui l'a marqué à jamais sur l'UTMB, cette montée après Trient où le corps a lâché avant que le mental ne reprenne le dessus, et sur l'état d'esprit qui l'habite cette année : pas de revanche à chercher, juste la boucle à boucler. Clément raconte comment vingt-huit ans de carrière d'ingénieur cohabitent avec un entraînement de très haut niveau, et comment le vélo, sa première vie sportive, a fini par céder la place à la course à pied et aux sentiers de montagne.Entre passion et performance, les deux athlètes dessinent ce qui les fait avancer chaque matin : la construction lente d'une carrière, l'humilité face à l'échec, la gestion de l'effort sur la longue distance. Ils reviennent sur leurs pires kilomètres, ceux qu'on n'aimerait jamais revivre, sur ces instants de flow où plus rien ne pouvait les arrêter, et sur les ajustements de préparation et de stratégie nutritionnelle qui font toute la différence en ultra-trail.Entre les questions sérieuses et une rubrique L'Altimètre plus joueuse, où chacun doit deviner l'avenir de l'autre, vous allez passer un moment suspendu en compagnie de Théo et Clément.Merci à OVERSTIM.s de soutenir cet épisode et notre créativité.Retrouvez toute la gamme OVERSTIM.s en ligne : https://www.overstims.com/***Course Épique, c'est le podcast running et trail qui vous fait vivre dans chaque épisode une histoire de course à pied hors du commun.Pour ne rien manquer de notre actualité et vivre les coulisses du podcast, suivez-nous sur Instagram : https://www.instagram.com/courseepique.podcast/Retrouvez également Course Epique en vidéo sur YouTube : https://bit.ly/courseepique_youtubeCourse Épique, un podcast imaginé et animé par Guillaume Lalu et produit par Sportcast Studios Hébergé par Acast.

La montagne est-elle la meilleure école pour devenir un meilleur coureur et peut-être une meilleure version de soi ?Dans cet épisode enregistré en public à Chamonix lors de l'Arc'teryx Alpine Academy, nous explorons tout ce que la montagne nous apprend : l'humilité, la gestion de la peur, la prise de décision, le goût du processus et l'importance de l'expérience.Aux côtés d'Élise Poncet, Martin Kern et Louis Derrien, nous parlons de performance, de transmission, de santé mentale et de cette relation si particulière que les coureurs entretiennent avec la montagne.Cet épisode est réalisé en collaboration commerciale avec Arc'teryx, à l'occasion de l'Arc'teryx Alpine Academy.Hébergé par Audiomeans.

Invité : Guillaume Pierrel Juin 2023. Deux jeunes alpinistes de Chamonix décident de relier les sept sommets du massif du Mont-Blanc où trônent une statue de la Vierge. Un périple sur les traces de ceux qui, portés par la foi, ont installé ces Madones sur les cimes pour implorer leur protection. L'un des deux alpinistes, Guillaume Pierrel, raconte cette histoire sportive, humaine et spirituelle au micro de Christine Mo Costabella.

Trente minutes suspendues dans le vide, entre deux montagnes et deux histoires qui n'ont rien à voir l'une avec l'autre — sauf peut-être l'essentiel. Au lendemain des 90km du Marathon du Mont-Blanc, je vous embarque avec Louison Coiffet et Eliott Retulli dans une télécabine à Chamonix pour un format inédit de Course Épique : l'interview télécabine, deux allers-retours suspendus au-dessus des cimes.Louison Coiffet, ancien judoka reconverti au trail, vient de remporter la course en 9h37, quarante secondes devant Ben Dhiman. Trois ans après une deuxième place qui le hantait encore un peu, il raconte cette victoire qu'il n'a comprise qu'à quelques kilomètres de l'arrivée, tétanisé à l'idée de se faire reprendre dans les derniers virages de Chamonix. Eliott Retulli, lui, a terminé 17e après une course qui a pris une tournure défavorable : hydratation ratée, jambes qui lâchent, une descente du col de Balme faite à moitié à reculons. Il raconte sans détour comment ses proches l'ont porté jusqu'à la ligne, alors qu'il ne croyait plus finir.Entre les stations, les deux athlètes se livrent sur leurs premiers souvenirs de course à pied, ces instants de flow qui justifient tous les sacrifices de la préparation, et les kilomètres les plus violents de leur carrière en ultra-trail. Ils se prêtent aussi au jeu de l'Altimètre, où chacun évalue les probabilités les plus folles concernant l'avenir de l'autre — reconversion, records, projets d'aventure à deux. Un échange rare, sincère, où la performance en endurance laisse place à l'humain, entre deux coureurs qui se taquinent autant qu'ils se confient.Un format hors norme pour deux athlètes hors du commun.Merci à OVERSTIM.s de soutenir cet épisode et notre créativité.Retrouvez toute la gamme OVERSTIM.s en ligne : https://www.overstims.com/***Course Épique, c'est le podcast running et trail qui vous fait vivre dans chaque épisode une histoire de course à pied hors du commun.Pour ne rien manquer de notre actualité et vivre les coulisses du podcast, suivez-nous sur Instagram : https://www.instagram.com/courseepique.podcast/Retrouvez également Course Epique en vidéo sur YouTube : https://bit.ly/courseepique_youtubeCourse Épique, un podcast imaginé et animé par Guillaume Lalu et produit par Sportcast Studios Hébergé par Acast.

On episode 326, I connect from Colorado to Chamonix to hear from French photographer and expedition climber, Julia Cassou. Julia grew up in a rural part of France in a town known for foie gras and its suggestive name (in English anyway). Her first camera was borrowed from her dad, and her first love was … Continue reading "Enormocast 326: Julia Cassou – Telling True Stories"

Two years ago, Ria was burnt out from her tech career in Silicon Valley, coming out of a difficult relationship, and struggling with mental health issues. Running became her way out. Within a year, she went from struggling to finish a half marathon to setting ultramarathon records on world-renowned routes. The Via Francigena: 1,014 km in 21 days The Camino de Santiago: 780 km in 12 days And now she has just started her journey to become the first human to run across Eurasia on the silk road, or what she calls: the 20000km Experiment. In this episode, Ria shares how running helped her rebuild her life, the mindset shifts that enabled her to go from beginner to record-breaking ultrarunner, and the enormous logistical challenge of planning a 20,000km expedition through 17 countries. Listen to this episode to learn about resilience, finding purpose after burnout, taking bold leaps into the unknown, and why sometimes the most "delusional" dreams are the ones worth pursuing. ***  New episodes of the Tough Girl Podcast drop every Tuesday at 7 AM (UK time)! Make sure to subscribe so you never miss the inspiring journeys and incredible stories of tough women pushing boundaries.  Do you want to support the Tough Girl Mission to increase the amount of female role models in the media in the world of adventure and physical challenges? Support via Patreon!

El valle de Chamonix, en los Alpes franceses, es un destino mítico asociado a expediciones de escaladores al Mont Blanc, pero Sandra Martín recuerda en Gente viajera que no está reservado solo a montañeros expertos. Según explica, todos los destinos de montaña ofrecen opciones para disfrutar de valles, cumbres y vistas, adaptando cada ruta y cada plan a la forma física y los gustos de cada viajero. El audio completo se puede escuchar en Gente viajera, el programa de viajes de Onda Cero que se emite sábados y domingos de 12:00 a 14:00h, presentado por Carles Lamelo, en este reportaje elaborado por Sandra Martín. Chamonix es una escapada a los Alpes franceses entre glaciares, teleféricos y vistas al Mont Blanc

Lotti Brinks ist in Deutschland für viele noch ein relativ unbekannter Name. In ihrer Wahlheimat USA ist das ganz anders: Dort wurde sie beim diesjährigen Western States 100 zum Favoritinnenkreis gezählt — und das völlig zurecht. Lotti Brinks kam mit einer starken Zeit von 16:04 ins Ziel. Das ist die siebtschnellste Zeit einer Frau aller Zeiten und die beste Platzierung einer/eines Deutschen Overall. Vier Frauen waren bei den diesjährigen idealen Bedingungen noch schneller als Lotti; am Ende erreichte sie Platz 5. Wir sprechen mit der Hoka‑Athletin über ihre Vorbereitung, ihr Rennen und ihre selbstbewusste Art — warum sie kein Problem damit hat zu sagen, dass sie jedes Rennen, das sie läuft, gewinnen will, zum Beispiel auch den umkämpften CCC in Chamonix, bei dem sie letztes Jahr bereits 6. wurde. Wir finden: Wenn Lotti so weitermacht, ist ihr alles zuzutrauen. Viel Spaß mit der Folge! Du möchtest mehr über Lottis Werdegang erfahren?

In this episode of RECESS, Juliet and I open with a massive shoutout to local legend Kate Courtney — who, after winning mountain biking world championships, the Leadville 100 record, and a long course world title, has now casually taken over road cycling too.We also get into something that came up close to home: Juliet watched the Barceloneta men's water polo team — European Champions League winners — practice on virtually no food or water, which opened up a real conversation about how you change deeply embedded fueling habits in elite sport. Spoiler: athletes have to feel the difference themselves.Then we dig into surgery nutrition — a topic that affects way more people than elite athletes. Muscle loss after orthopedic surgery runs about 1% per day, with up to 18% loss in the quads and hamstrings within six weeks. We break down protein timing, pre-surgical carbohydrate loading, and how to protect your body going in and coming out.Plus: Kelly's ACL and "sprain plus" knee update, Haute Route hike prep, and an ongoing domestic dispute about whether Stumptown Holler Mountain is the peak of human coffee achievement or just the beginning of the search.New episodes of The Ready State Podcast drop every Thursday.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeWhy Kate Courtney's move from mountain biking to road cycling is one of the most remarkable athletic pivots happening in sport right nowHow intra-session carbohydrate fueling is changing across elite sports, and why winning teams are often the hardest to convince to changeWhat the research says about muscle loss after orthopedic surgery: up to 1% per day and 18% loss in six weeksWhy protein needs jump to 1.2–2g per kilogram of bodyweight in the pre- and post-surgical windowHow consuming ~50g of carbohydrates two hours before surgery may reduce post-surgical insulin resistance by 50%Why "three limb training" matters during recovery and why you can't just wait for healing to happenHow Kelly is rehabbing a torn ACL, MCL, high-grade fibular sprain, torn calf, and two menisci, and still calling it a "sprain plus"What the Haute Route from Chamonix to Zermatt demands physically, and how Kelly is prepping for 10 days of mountain hikingKey Highlights: (00:00) Welcome back to RECESS; Kate Courtney shoutout — local legend, mountain biking world champion, and now national road cycling champion(01:30) How Kate Courtney broke the factory racing model, started her own team, won Leadville 100 with a course record, and took the long course world championship, and most recently the US National Road Championship(04:43) The mutant athlete era: Kate, Pauline Ferrand-Prévot, Puck Pieterse, and why cyclists switching disciplines is making the sport more exciting than ever(06:00) Water polo and intra-session fueling: watching the Barceloneta European champions practice under-fueled, and a conversation with Heather Petri about how far sport nutrition has come(07:50) How you actually change fueling dogma in elite sport: showing athletes the data, letting them feel the difference, and why winning teams are hardest to convince(08:25) Intra-session carb targets across sports: from 30–50g for recreational athletes to 100g+ per hour for elite endurance, and what the Tour de France taught us about gut training(16:40) Kids and fueling: why youth athletes are chronically under-fueled and what parents can do about it(17:30) The coffee wars: Stumptown Holler Mountain vs. the challengers — Monmouth, Kimbo, Doma Roasters Chronic, and the Aeropress experiment(21:10) Haute Route prep: hiking Chamonix to Zermatt, 10 days, 8–10 hour hiking days, and how Kelly is training his "sprain plus" knee for the Alps(26:55) Kelly's injury breakdown: torn ACL, torn MCL, high-grade fibular sprain, torn calf, both menisci — and why he chose to delay ACL repair to make the trip(28:00) Surgery nutrition: the research on muscle loss post-orthopedic surgery, why protein needs spike, and the pre-surgical carbohydrate timing window(31:20) Can we challenge the "nothing by mouth" pre-surgery protocol? Liquid carbohydrates, glucose boluses, and protecting muscle mass before you go under(33:55) Wrap-up, Happy 4th of July, and thanks for listening

Sommaren är här! Hur ska man tänka kring periodiseringen av träningen nu? Szacke lämnar racerapport från Chamonix och LG visar sitt heta temperament när det kommer till veckans 1+!

Après un podium remarqué au Grand Raid du Ventoux by UTMB, Clément Lalba retrouvait les sentiers de Chamonix avec de grandes ambitions sur le Marathon du Mont-Blanc. Bien placé en début de course, 15e au Tour puis 7e au sommet de l'Aiguillette des Posettes, "L'Anonyme" semblait en route pour une nouvelle grosse performance. Mais en montagne, tout peut basculer très vite. Dans cet épisode, Clément revient sans filtre sur son abandon au Marathon du Mont-Blanc. Le manque de lucidité, la baisse d'énergie, les doutes qui s'installent, l'envie de s'arrêter au bord du sentier pour dormir… Il nous raconte de l'intérieur ce jour où le corps et la tête ont dit stop. Avec Yohan Durand et benoit Boutron, RMC Running analyse les raisons possibles de ce DNF : gestion de l'enchaînement des courses, fatigue accumulée, nutrition, sommeil, stratégie de course… Comment expliquer ce coup d'arrêt après un début de saison si prometteur ? Et surtout, comment transformer cette déception en expérience pour revenir plus fort ? Un épisode sincère sur les hauts, les bas et la réalité de la progression dans le trail de haut niveau !   

Was für ein Trailrunning-Wochenende! Bestleistungen, Rekorde, spannende Rennen und jede Menge Geschichten. Eigentlich Stoff für fünf Stunden Podcast – aber keine Sorge, so lange quatschen wir dann doch nicht…Lars war dieses Mal in Cortina – nicht als Athlet, sondern als Coach und Fan. Er begleitete seine beiden Athleten Hannes Namberger und Andreas Reiter auf ihrer nächtlichen Runde beim Lavaredo Ultra Trail. Und natürlich stellt sich dabei die entscheidende Frage: Wem drückt man als Coach mehr die Daumen? Dem dreimaligen Sieger Hannes oder dem Lokalmatador Andreas? Lars nimmt euch mit hinter die Kulissen eines der größten Trailrunning-Rennen der Welt und berichtet, wie sich ein Rennen anfühlt, wenn man nicht selbst läuft, sondern jede Zwischenzeit, jede Verpflegung und jeden Kilometer mitfiebert. Und wie es am Ende ausgeht das Rennen zwischen seinen beiden eigenen Athleten. Zum Schluss werfen wir noch einen kurzen Blick in die USA und nach Chamonix. Denn auch dort war am Wochenende wieder jede Menge Trailrunning geboten. Kurz gesagt: Es war eines dieser Wochenenden, an denen unser Lieblingssport einmal mehr gezeigt hat, warum wir ihn so lieben.

Tait Duryea and Ryan Gibson sit down with Trevor Kuresa to unpack the Deferred Sales Trust, a lesser-known strategy for deferring capital gains after selling a business or highly appreciated asset. Trevor explains how the structure works, why it differs from a 1031 exchange or monetized installment sale, and when the costs, timing, and compliance rules make sense. For pilots, real estate investors, and business owners thinking about a future exit, this episode offers a practical look at tax planning before a major transaction.Trevor Kuresa is a corporate and tax attorney specializing in mergers and acquisitions, fractional general counsel, and advanced tax strategies for business owners and high-income professionals. With experience in tax structuring, legal transactions, and corporate counsel work, Trevor helps clients evaluate strategies for reducing or deferring capital gains and income tax.Show notes:(0:00) Chamonix race recap(2:14) Deferred Sales Trust intro(4:47) Trevor's legal background(6:10) Tax strategy for pilots(9:37) Deferred sales trust explained(13:50) Rental property example(17:26) Best use cases(21:10) Tax deferral mechanics(25:15) IRS rules and risks(36:28) OutroConnect with Trevor:Website: https://hibiscuslegal.com/ Email: tkuresa@hibiscuslegal.com Phone: 801-577-3445LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/trevor-kuresa-36b59339/ Related Episode: #10 - Reduce Your Taxes & Maximize Returns Using PROVEN Investment Strategies with Toby MathisIf you're interested in participating, the latest institutional-quality self-storage portfolio is available for investment now at: https://turbinecap.investnext.com/portal/offerings/8449/houston-storage/ — You've found the number one resource for financial education for aviators!

What does it look like when running completely changes the direction of your life?Beth Dennis is a trail runner, intensive care nurse and the new host of The RunThrough Trails Podcast. In this episode of The RunThrough Podcast, she joins Ben Sheppard to share her journey from struggling to speak up in school and never feeling at home in traditional sport, to discovering parkrun, falling in love with movement and eventually finding trail running through the Alpine Run Project.Together, they talk about confidence, community, breaking down barriers in sport and how running can become so much more than training or racing. Beth opens up about finding her voice, why trail running gave her a sense of belonging, and the moments that completely changed the way she saw herself and the world around her.They also dive into the magic of Chamonix, dream races, UTMB, racing Mont Blanc Marathon, creating more inclusive start lines and why opening doors into the outdoors can genuinely change lives.Beth Dennis - https://www.instagram.com/_bethdennis/Ben Sheppard - https://www.instagram.com/bensheppard93/

WESTERN STATES 100, MARATHON DU MONTBLANC, GTPE, GARMIN EPIC TRAIL Y TRAIL BRONCHALES. Gran fin de semana el vivido en las carreras de montaña por medio mundo: Desde California hasta los Alpes, pasando por Picos de Europa, el Pirineo catalán y la Sierra de Albarracín, el trail nos ha dejado actuaciones memorables, récords, abandonos inesperados y carreras donde volvió a demostrarse que la montaña siempre termina poniendo a cada uno en su sitio. Ha sido uno de esos fines de semana capaces de resumir toda la riqueza de nuestro deporte, con pruebas radicalmente distintas pero unidas por la misma pasión por correr entre montañas. La gran referencia internacional volvió a ser la Western States 100, donde el calor extremo endureció todavía más una carrera ya legendaria. La retirada de Kilian Jornet antes del ecuador de la prueba fue una de las grandes noticias del fin de semana, dejando vía libre para una edición marcada por el dominio de los especialistas estadounidenses y por una batalla de enorme desgaste hasta Auburn. Mientras tanto, en Chamonix, el Marathon du Mont-Blanc volvió a confirmar su condición de gran clásico europeo con la tercera victoria de Rémi Bonnet y una exhibición histórica de Tove Alexandersson, que pulverizó el récord femenino para acabar además undécima absoluta frente a centenares de corredores masculinos. En España también hubo mucho donde elegir. El Gran Trail Picos de Europa reunió otra vez algunos de los paisajes más espectaculares de nuestra cordillera cantábrica con carreras muy disputadas y un ambiente extraordinario en torno a Benia de Onís. Al mismo tiempo, la Garmin Epic Trail volvió a convertir el Valle de Boí en escaparate del mejor trail pirenaico, con una maratón de enorme nivel donde Raúl Ortiz y Anna Comet firmaron dos victorias de muchísimo mérito sobre un recorrido tan bello como exigente. Dos carreras muy diferentes entre sí, pero ambas reflejo del magnífico momento que vive el calendario español. Y para completar el menú llegó también el Trail Bronchales, una cita que año tras año demuestra que no hace falta superar los dos mil metros de altitud para diseñar un recorrido espectacular. Los pinares de la Sierra de Albarracín ofrecieron nuevamente un terreno rapidísimo, muy corredor y técnicamente entretenido, con una organización que continúa creciendo edición tras edición hasta sumar 1903 finalistas este 2026. En conjunto, cinco carreras, cinco escenarios completamente distintos y un mismo mensaje: el trail running vive un momento extraordinario tanto dentro como fuera de España, con un calendario cada vez más internacional, más competitivo y también más diverso para todos los perfiles de corredores.

Pour ce nouvel épisode de Pot'1 de Trail, Ludo Collet reçoit Fred Comte... à lui seul, il incarne parfaitement ce rôle discret mais essentiel : celui des personnes qui croient et font confiance avant les autres !Dans le parcours de Ludo, Fred fait partie de ceux qui lui ont fait confiance très tôt, en lui confiant des dates importantes à un moment où tout était encore en construction. Une confiance fondatrice, qui a permis le passage du bénévolat au micro professionnel.« Il y a des rencontres qui peuvent changer une vie. De bénévole à professionnel du micro, le chemin n'était pas forcément évident et pourtant, Fred Comte, lui, en était persuadé. Merci infiniment au Club des Sports de Chamonix » dit Ludo.

Candice lève les bras à Chamonix.C'est son rêve qui se réalise—sur les sentiers mêmes où elle a appris à courir. En 11h53 sur les 90 kilomètres du Marathon du Mont-Blanc, elle ne se contente pas de gagner : elle signe une performance qui dépasse ses propres attentes, devenant la première chamoniarde à remporter cette épreuve mythique.Au lendemain de cette victoire, Candice revient en détail sur ce qui l'a menée là. Une préparation qui n'a rien de classique : 200 000 mètres de dénivelé à ski l'hiver, un hiver.Un travail spécifique sur le plat—ses faiblesses historiques— et surtout, une transformation mentale radicale, amorcée en 2023 après un abandon douloureux au Championnat de France. Cette année-là, elle croyait que tout s'effondrait. Aujourd'hui, elle a compris que chaque coureuse de talent au départ est une invitation à s'élever.On plonge dans chaque virage de la course : le moment où elle prend la tête sans le chercher, les passages critiques où le doute surgit (ce moment au Châtelard, vers 45 kilomètres), la gestion de la chaleur qu'elle redoutait tant, la nutrition qu'elle a scrupuleusement préparée. On comprend comment elle tient le cap malgré les appels du doute—comment son mari Marc-Henri et son assistance lui soufflent les bonnes décisions au bon moment.Mais c'est aussi une histoire d'amitié : ces échanges chaleureux avec Audrey Tanguy tantôt à ses côtés, tantôt à ses trousses, et cette confiance qu'on n'abandonne pas même en étant devant.Et à l'arrivée dans sa ville, les visages des gens qu'elle croise tous les jours qui soudain sont là, dans les rues, pour célébrer avec elle.Entre transformation mentale, stratégie d'ultra-trail, préparation en montagne et rêve réalisé, Candice nous raconte comment elle a su construire avec patience et minutie cette victoire alors qu'elle s'essayait pour la 1ère fois à un ultra-trail.Un moment d'échange simple, riche et chaleureux, à l'image de Candice.Vous allez passer un très beau moment avec elle.Photo : Jan Kirkham pour New Balance Running.***Course Épique, c'est le podcast running et trail qui vous fait vivre dans chaque épisode une histoire de course à pied hors du commun.Pour ne rien manquer de notre actualité et vivre les coulisses du podcast, suivez-nous sur Instagram : https://www.instagram.com/courseepique.podcast/Retrouvez également Course Epique en vidéo sur YouTube : https://bit.ly/courseepique_youtubeCourse Épique, un podcast imaginé et animé par Guillaume Lalu et produit par Sportcast Studios Hébergé par Acast.

El fin de semana del 26 al 28 de junio de 2026 se celabra la Marathon du Mont Blanc, patrocinada por New Balance.Gracias a la marca, he podido viajar a Chamonix para particiar en los 23km. de la Marathon du Mont Blanc, y conocer más a fondo lo que traerá la marca para 2027.Además, me concedieron un espacio para poder entrevistar a Manuel Merillas, corredor de la marca. Como siempre, y sin pelos en la lengua, Manu nos habla de su temporada, Zegama, los abandonos en las carreras y su implicación en el desarrollo de producto.Contacto:juan@ellaboratoriodejuan.com

Send us Fan MailKarina Andersen's season doesn't start with a perfect training block, it starts with a hard reset. After closing out her track era at Colorado School of Mines, she steps away from school for breathing room, takes on Denali, and then spends months living in Chamonix to see what a true mountain town feels like day to day. We talk about the real pressure that can come with places like Chamonix and Boulder, where it's easy to feel like you have to “earn” your time there with constant vert, big objectives, and public training proof.Then the comeback gets loud. Karina spends the winter going all-in on ski mountaineering with almost zero running, and still shows up in Asia to race the Penang Sky Race in Malaysia and the Ueda Sky Race in Japan, taking 4th and 8th. We break down what heat and humidity do to pacing, why concrete downhills can shred your quads, how mud changes risk and speed, and why uphill fitness can return faster than downhill durability when you've been on skis for months.The most important part is the mental side. Karina shares what it's like to carry a tough DNF and panic mid-race, then rebuild confidence by changing the goal from “place” to “stay present.” We also get into her 2026-focused skyrunning plans, thoughts on UTMB and Golden Trail, and a wild new skill: learning to paraglide in Annecy, with a long-term dream of hike-and-fly racing like Red Bull X-Alps.If you're into skyrunning, trail running, mountain racing, ski mountaineering, or just figuring out the next chapter, this one hits.

Et si gravir l'équivalent de la ligne de Kármán, la frontière officielle de l'espace, ne demandait ni fusée ni casque, mais simplement deux jambes et treize jours de patience ? Benjamin Mougel, lui, l'a fait à pied, en remontant cent fois le même kilomètre vertical au-dessus de Chamonix.Originaire des Vosges et architecte de formation, Benjamin n'a pourtant jamais vraiment aimé courir : ni le running, ni les cross du collège, où il se sentait largué face aux gazelles du foot. Sa porte d'entrée, c'est le roller de vitesse, dès l'âge de six ans. Le trail, lui, arrive plus tard, presque par hasard, pendant le Covid, s'ensuit très vite une obsession pour la verticalité.En 2024, il pulvérise le record de l'Infernal Trail sur 200 kilomètres. Quelques mois plus tard, il bat le record du monde de dénivelé positif sur 24 heures (21 134 mètres), à deux pas de chez lui, dans les Hautes Vosges. Restait à trouver l'idée suivante. Elle naît au sommet d'un téléphérique, lancée presque en plaisantant par sa compagne Zoé : et si tu refaisais ce KV sous nos pieds... mais cent fois ?De cette phrase naît le défi des cent mille mètres de dénivelé positif, avalés en treize jours sur les pentes très techniques de Chamonix.Benjamin raconte sans filtre les arbitrages d'un tel projet d'ultra-trail : une nutrition qui doit basculer du gel énergétique au repas solide, des nuits réduites à quelques heures pour ne jamais perdre en lucidité, des ischios qui finissent par hurler à chaque descente, et cette stratégie mentale fine, faite de micro-objectifs glissés jour après jour pour ne jamais se laisser écraser par l'ampleur du chiffre.Il y a aussi les rencontres imprévues sur le sentier, la curiosité des habitants de la vallée, et la présence de la famille et des amis venus l'épauler jusqu'au bout. Et cette idée qui traverse tout l'échange : non, il n'y a aucun plaisir brut à répéter la même montée cent fois, mais il y a une joie immense à se prouver, encore, qu'on peut aller plus loin que ce qu'on imaginait possible.Un épisode sur l'endurance à l'état pur, la préparation d'un défi hors norme, et ce que la performance révèle : la capacité humaine à se réinventer, mètre après mètre.***Course Épique, c'est le podcast running et trail qui vous fait vivre dans chaque épisode une histoire de course à pied hors du commun.Pour ne rien manquer de notre actualité et vivre les coulisses du podcast, suivez-nous sur Instagram : https://www.instagram.com/courseepique.podcast/Retrouvez également Course Epique en vidéo sur YouTube : https://bit.ly/courseepique_youtubeCourse Épique, un podcast imaginé et animé par Guillaume Lalu et produit par Sportcast Studios Hébergé par Acast.

Send us Fan MailIn episode #188 we spoke with NR athlete Dani Moreno as she goes into her first race post-surgery out at Broken Arrow Sky Race 46k. Dani shares her journey through injury recovery and optimization strategies, and what she is doing leading up to race day.KEY TOPICSDani's journey through her first major injury and recoveryMental resilience strategies during injury recovery.Nutritional strategies and key supplements for healing.Importance of comprehensive blood work for athletes.Training and race preparation insights from Dani.Please note that this podcast is created strictly for educational purposes and should never be used for medical diagnosis or treatment.ABOUT DANI MORENO:Dani Moreno is a professional trail runner galloping and residing in the Eastern Sierra mountain town of Mammoth Lakes, California. She moved to the mountains at the end of 2020 from the coastal town of Santa Barbara, where she lived for a decade, having graduated from the University of Santa Barbara, California.While at UCSB, she competed for the women's Cross Country and Track and Field programs and produced times that made her competitive on both the conference and national level. After college, she took a break from running to rediscover herself, leaning into outdoor guiding and things like climbing, spearfishing, motorcycle riding and other outdoor activities that pushed her to her physiological limits. During this phase of life, she found nothing gave her quite the same satisfaction running did. She began dabbling in trail running, which reignited her passion, and soon she was exploring the Los Padres National Forest's front range on her off days. Trail running immediately appealed to all aspects of her personality in a way that no other type of running had before. As she began to race trails, new opportunities arose and doors opened. She began traveling all over the United States and the world, feeling gratitude the whole way. That feeling hasn't stopped since 2016, and since her debut to the sport, she has exploded on the sub-ultra and ultra scene, with an incredible number of podium and top 10 finishes, including being the top American at UTMB's World Championship OCC race in Chamonix in August 2024, a top 5 finish at the 2024 Broken Arrow Skyrace 26k, 1st at Canyons Endurance Race, 1st at Kodiak Ultra Marathon 50k in 2023, 2nd at Mammoth Trailfest 26k in 2023, and many others. FREE RESOURCES:NR Recovery Protocol: https://mailchi.mp/nutritional-revolution.com/recovery-protocolCarb Loading Guide: https://mailchi.mp/nutritional-revolution/free-carb-loading-guideFOLLOW DANI MORENO:IG: www.instagram.com/dan_yell_aSee Dani at TrailCon: https://trailconference.com/2026-schedule/SubHub Podcast: https://www.dani-moreno.com/the-sub-hubMENTIONED:NeverSecond C30 Drink Mix: https://amzn.to/4enkKgkFairlife Protein Shakes: https://amzn.to/4enkKgkThorne Vitamin D and K2: https://nutritional-revolution.com/product/thorne-vitamin-d-k2-liquid/Beta-Alanine: https://nutritional-revolution.com/product/thorne-beta-alanine/Higher Dose PEMF: https://go.shopmy.us/p-65149034Omni PEMF Ring: https://go.shopmy.us/p-65149244Supplements 20% off on Fullscript: https://us.fullscript.com/welcome/kchannellThorne Vitamin CProbioticsIronCollagenCalciumFish OilTIMESTAMPS:1:01 - Introduction to Dani Moreno3:19 - Dani's Injury Journey5:54 - Mental Resilience During Recovery9:10 - Nutritional Strategies for Healing11:22 - Importance of Blood Work16:22 - Training and Race Preparation38:04 - Innovative Recovery Tools29:14 - Upcoming Races and Goals45:18 - Community and Support SystemsMORE NRApply to work with Kyla → https://p.bttr.to/3ZrwzcFUse code NEWPOD10 for 10% off our meal plans → https://nutritional-revolution.com/products/CONNECT Instagram → www.instagram.com/nutritionalrevolutionSponsorship inquiries → kyla.c@nutritional-revolution.comInterested in having your biomarkers or nutrigenomics checked?

I finally made it to Europe. And I did the Tour Du Mont Blanc!After spending years building it up in my head as complicated, intimidating, and full of opportunities to embarrass myself, I decided to jump into the deep end and hike the Tour du Mont Blanc.Over three days, I crossed France, Italy, and Switzerland, climbed more than 30,000 feet, slept in mountain refugios, drank an irresponsible amount of espresso, and somehow got bitten by an Italian fox.In this episode, I recap the entire adventure, from getting lost in Geneva Airport to watching the sunset from Le Brévent above Chamonix. Along the way, I share what surprised me most about the Alps, why I put off Europe for 35 years, and how the things that scare us are often much easier than we imagine.Topics:Tour du Mont Blanc recapEarly season conditions and snowHiking through France, Italy, and SwitzerlandRefugio cultureTraveling solo in EuropeThe Italian fox incidentEspresso, croissants, and mountain passesLessons from 100 miles around Mont BlancIf you enjoy the episode, please subscribe, leave a review, and share it with a friend.Read the full Tour du Mont Blanc trip report:freeoutside.substack.comSupport the show:patreon.com/freeoutsideSupport our Sponsors: Sawyer: https://sawyerdirect.net/Janji (code: Freeoutside): https://snp.link/a0bfb726CS Coffee: CSinstant.coffeeGarage Grown Gear: https://snp.link/db1ba8abSubscribe to Substack: http://freeoutside.substack.comSupport this content on patreon: HTTP://patreon.com/freeoutsideBuy my book "Free Outside" on Amazon: https://amzn.to/39LpoSFEmail me to buy a signed copy of my book, "Free Outside" at jeff@freeoutside.comWatch the movie about setting the record on the Colorado Trail: https://tubitv.com/movies/100019916/free-outsideWebsite: www.Freeoutside.comInstagram: thefreeoutsidefacebook: www.facebook.com/freeoutside#Trailrunning #Runningnews #Outdoors #Outdooradventure

Emelie Forsberg is one of the great trail runners of the last two decades. In the early 2010s, Emelie was a dominant force on the racing circuit, accumulating wins and podium performances at some of the sport's most important races. Emelie was part of the early Salomon trail running team that, in many ways, ushered in the modern era of the sport and she became one of the most impactful athletes during that time. While she's remained around the community all along, Emelie de-prioritized running for several years to focus on starting and building a family. Now a mother of three, Emelie is ready to re-prioritize racing again, starting at Transvulcania a few weeks ago where she finished on the podium with a very strong third-place performance. Emelie has also been a key contributor to two ambitious startups in the sport, Moon Valley Nutrition and NNormal. This is her first appearance on the podcast. Chapters: 02:43 – What makes you you? 05:17 – How Emelie's relationship with running has changed over 15 years 09:46 – Why Emelie is committing to a new 3-year competitive chapter 11:52 – Parenting, racing & what the kids think about their parents' careers 13:41 – Early Salomon team memories & trail running's formative years 16:53 – How the early Salomon era shaped modern trail running 19:22 – Moving from Chamonix to Norway & building a quieter life 25:02 – Motherhood, sacrifice & stepping back from racing 28:17 – Learning from our children 31:55 – The evolution of trail running & the current racing landscape 34:42 – Moon Valley, NNormal & lessons from entrepreneurship 37:07 – Balancing family, business & elite training 40:13 – Returning to Transvulcania after nearly a decade away 43:21 – Racing again without pressure & embracing the present version of herself 46:03 – Lessons, mistakes & rediscovering joy during Transvulcania 48:14 – Anna Frost & Lucy Bartholemew 52:56 – What's next? 55:14 – Hardrock dreams & memories from Diagonale des Fous 55:56 – How Emelie & Kilian balance racing schedules with family life 58:53 – Who is one person you admire?   SUBSCRIBE TO FREETRAIL'S NEWSLETTER - https://mailing.freetrail.com/newslettersignup JOIN FREETRAIL PRO - https://freetrail.com/pro REGISTER FOR TRAILCON - https://trailconference.com/register/ Sponsors: Use code FREETRAIL25 for 25% off your first order of NEVERSECOND nutrition at https://www.never2.com Check out the Capilene Cool Sun Hoodie from Patagonia https://www.patagonia.com/shop/favorites/capilene-cool-tech-tees/sun Use this link for 30% off Ketone-IQ - https://ketone.com/pages/dylan-bowman?utm_source=partners&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=FREETRAIL30 Freetrail Links: Website | https://freetrail.com/ Freetrail Pro | https://freetrail.com/freetrail-pro/ Patreon | https://www.patreon.com/dylanbowman Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/runfreetrail/ YouTube | https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8MKI1xB8YMchI1764zJXHg Freetrail Experts | https://freetrail.com/freetrail-experts/ Dylan Links: Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/dylanbo/ Twitter | https://twitter.com/dylanbo LinkedIn | https://www.linkedin.com/in/dylan-bowman-06174380/ Strava | https://www.strava.com/pros/1596921

Send us Fan MailMount Rainier is not the place where you get to switch your brain off and “just suffer.” The route moves, the glacier breathes, and a boot pack that looked safe two days ago can point straight at a crevasse. That's why Simon Kearns' new Mount Rainier round trip on-foot FKT, 3:43:50 car to car, stopped us in our tracks. Simon is an RMI Expeditions mountain guide and a rising name in mountain running and skyrunning, with speed records that include Mount Hood and a recent fastest time on Mailbox Peak. We talk through the real story behind the Rainier effort: a last-minute pivot away from a ski record attempt after snapping a race ski, the advantage and responsibility that comes with doing route work on the mountain, and how he stays sharp when the terrain demands both speed and precision. If you've ever wondered what “dialing a route” means on snow and ice, this conversation makes it concrete. We also get into how he trains around guiding logistics, why he works with Jackson Cole as a coach, and how he thinks about the balance between lonely FKT projects and the energy of racing. Along the way we swap notes on the Pacific Northwest volcano scene, European skyrunning culture in Chamonix, and what it looks like to pursue the AMGA and IFMGA guiding path while still chasing big athletic goals. If you like FKTs, alpine running, mountaineering strategy, and honest talk about risk, training, and motivation, hit play.

In this episode, Carl shares a story from a trip to Chamonix that challenged his assumptions about money, value, and how the world works. After a failed attempt to order eggs outside of breakfast hours, he's reminded that not everything is about paying more to get what you want—sometimes it's about craft, culture, and a completely different way of seeing things. Carl reflects on how travel and new environments can expand our perspective on money and life, and why those moments of friction might be some of the most valuable experiences we have.Want more from Carl?

Kaz has a PhD in human behaviour and MSc in Sport and Exercise Psychology, and has studied our power to perform when faced with adversity. Passionate about helping people believe in themselves she explores what is it about our fears, courage, resilience, and mindset, that drives us to succeed or sabotages us? And Kaz loves to run far.   Her trail running journey started in Chamonix, France with the Mont Blanc Marathon and UTMB races. Favorite adventures include Tahoe 200 (3rd F), Moab 240 (2nd F), Ouray 100 (1st F), Tot Dret, Italy (3rd F) and Across the Years (420 miles in 10 days – 3rd F), plus successfully completing 1 crazy loop of The Barkley Marathons, and most recently finishing Last Annual Vol State, a 500K continuous and self-supported race across Tennessee.

Show Notes At this point in the season, a lot of runners start to question themselves. Races are getting closer. Training suddenly feels more exposed. Sessions that felt perfectly normal in winter now feel loaded with meaning. A flat run becomes evidence that something is wrong. A bad session suddenly feels significant. And yet, objectively, many runners are actually in a very good place. In this solo episode of the Pyllon Ultra Pod, I explore the strange gap between what's actually happening in training… and what it feels like is happening emotionally. Why confidence often lags behind fitness. Why uncertainty never fully disappears, even for experienced athletes. And why learning to tolerate that uncertainty might be one of the most important skills in endurance sport. I also reflect on my own training, conversations with athletes, old experiences in Chamonix, and the subtle psychological effects of comparison culture and social media. This episode is about trust. Trusting consistency. Trusting the process. And trusting that progress often feels far less dramatic than we expect it to. In this episode: Why runners often feel behind even when training is going well The difference between objective progress and subjective feeling Why confidence reacts faster than fitness The hidden psychological cost of comparison and constant visibility Why endurance sport demands commitment before certainty How experienced athletes learn to tolerate ambiguity rather than eliminate it Why patience and emotional steadiness matter more than most people realise And maybe most importantly: How to keep moving forward even when you don't fully trust where you are yet.

On episode 319 of the Enormocast, I connect across the Atlantic with Irish/Swedish climber and guide, Freja Shannon. Freja split her youth between the west coast of Ireland and Sweden. Her first mountain sport was snowboarding which took her to Chamonix for a winter season when she was 19. But in that spring, she found … Continue reading "Enormocast 319: Freja Shannon – Moments of Glad Grace"

Jeff Booth, Jack, and Nick explore a year-long paper linking Bitcoin to fundamental physics, framing Bitcoin blocks as discrete, quantized units of time. They connect concepts from quantum mechanics and entropy to Bitcoin's design, argue that its finite, discrete structure may be incompatible with quantum computing threats, and close with plans to experimentally test a Bitcoin miner's interaction with zero-point energy in a physics lab in Chamonix. IN THIS EPISODE YOU'LL LEARN: 00:00:00 - Intro 00:02:46 - Bitcoin blocks as quantized units of time challenging the continuous-time assumption in modern physics 00:07:26 - The self-referential problem of time in physics and why time cannot be tested outside of itself 00:13:34 - Parallels between Bitcoin's mempool and quantum superposition as pre-measurement potential states 00:14:43 - How Bitcoin's UTXO model separates measurement from observation in a way physics cannot 00:31:13 - Bridging Boltzmann entropy and Shannon entropy through Bitcoin's finite state space and mining process 00:37:47 - Bitcoin's 21 million supply cap as a physical boundary analogous to Planck temperature 00:42:26 - Why Bitcoin's discrete time model may be fundamentally incompatible with quantum computing attacks 01:02:32 - Plans to test a Bitcoin miner's interaction with zero-point energy at a physics lab in Chamonix Disclaimer: Slight discrepancies in the timestamps may occur due to podcast platform differences.
