Podcasts about mont blanc utmb

This week, we celebrated Allison's being officially named to Team USA for the World 50K Championship by going back over a few things that Bobby Norwood said during our interview last week. We also analyzed some of the results from Ultra Trail du Mont Blanc (UTMB), one of the biggest and most prestigious ultra races in the United States. Finally, we discussed a recent article in the New York Times that described a small study by a Virginia oncologist that seemed to suggest a link between distance running and colon cancer. While it's still preliminary, there are some good takeaways for endurance athletes like us!

Tom Evans is a pro runner for Asics from the UK. He is also the 2025 champion of the Ultra Trail du Mont Blanc (UTMB), winning in a time of 19:18:58.

Maxime Monfort a disputé 20 grands tours et marqué les pelotons pendant 15 ans. Depuis sa retraite cycliste en 2019, il a troqué son vélo pour s'adonner à la pratique du trail. Avec une certaine réussite. À quelques jours de son premier Ultra Trail du Mont-Blanc (UTMB), l'actuel directeur sportif de la formation Lidl-Trek a pris place derrière le micro de notre podcast Fartlek pour évoquer sa passion pour le trail, les liens qu'il fait entre le cyclisme et la course à pied, son approche avant tout axée sur le plaisir et, bien sûr, son UTMB 2025.Un échange sans filtre entre performance, adaptation et passion, avec un ancien pro devenu accro au trail.

Professional ultra runner Lucy Bartholomew ran her first 100k at Surf Coast Century when she was 16. Not because she wanted to be someone, or become someone. She just wanted to run it. And she did – with her dad right there on her shoulder. In this conversation, we talk about the “Ned effect” era, where runners are taking on big challenges to become known, rather than having a more intrinsic motivation. We discuss body image issues which are rife in running and made worse now by social media, and the hardships Lucy faced finding her identity as a young athlete in the public eye. We also ponder whether awareness around eating disorders and under fuelling is getting through to the next wave of runners in the running boom. Hearing Lucy speak will make you want to run trails! She has a contagious positive energy that you can't help but be inspired by. Lucy is currently in Chamonix where she's preparing for her third Ultra Trail du Mont Blanc (UTMB) at the end of August. She hopes to better her 10th place performances from the past two years. -- Lucy Bartholomew is one of Australia's most accomplished ultramarathon and endurance athletes. She's earned podium finishes at several major races, including Ultra‑Trail Australia and the Western States 100-Mile Endurance Run. She is one of few women to complete both the Ultra‑Trail du Mont‑Blanc and the Ironman World Championship in the same year (and she did it twice – in 2023 and 2024). A Salomon-sponsored athlete, Lucy is also a coach, creator, and passionate advocate for trail running and women's health. -- This episode is sponsored by Mikro Coffee Roasters.

L'ultra-trail est une discipline qui requiert particulièrement de résilience, de motivation, voire même d'obstination.Blandine L'Hirondel est double championne du monde et triple championne de France en ultra-trail. Elle a également fini troisième lors du mythique Ultra-Trail du Mont-Blanc (UTMB) en 2023.Tout cela en tant que semi-professionnelle et en maintenant son activité à côté de gynécologue obstétricienne.Dans cet épisode, elle nous partage sa découverte de la discipline, à la Réunion, et comment, en quelques mois seulement, elle a rejoint l'équipe de France et remporté les championnats du monde. Elle revient aussi sur l'une des courses les plus ardues de sa carrière : l'Ultra-Trail du Mont-Blanc, un parcours de 171 km avec plus de 10 000 mètres de dénivelé.Bonne écoute !

La nouvelle année commence en force avec Anthony Fontaine, un gars qui incarne l'aventure sous toutes ses formes.

Richard Turgeon est de retour pour jaser de sa préparation pour la mythique et brutale Hardrock 100 Endurance Run au Colorado. Dans ce second chapitre de la série, on aborde deux sujets extrêmement importants dans notre sport : l'entraînement et la nutrition. Richard est autodidacte dans ses entraînement et sa nutrition, et gère le tout de manière intuitive. Par contre, son immense bagage de connaissance, combiné à sa carrière de physiothérapeute-ostéopathe, en font de lui un candidat tout indiqué pour nous en parler. À travers les années, Richard a complété certains des ultramarathons les plus mythiques et brutales au monde, dont le Tor des Glaciers, la Western States 100, l'Ultra-trail du Mont-Blanc (UTMB) et la Moab 240 miles. Encore une fois, la discussion est hyper intéressante car Richard est un gars tellement sympathique, généreux et humble! Bonne écoute.Pour découvrir le chapitre 1 de cette série, c'est par ici.CréditsDesign graphique : David HébertThème musical : Frédérick DesrochesIdée originale, production, recherche et animation : Yannick Vézina© Pas sorti du bois 2024

In 2016, Christian Meier made an unusual decision: at the age of 31, he walked away from a successful WorldTour career a year before his contract was due to end to focus on the coffee shop he and his wife had just opened in Girona, Spain. That year, they opened two more businesses. After dabbling in off-road racing for a couple of years, he made a second unconventional transition. He started competing in trail running events and found so much fulfillment in it that his focus began to gravitate toward professional sports again. Last year, he won TDS, a 150-kilometer trail race in Chamonix and one of the most iconic ultra races in the world. This year, he has his sights set on the biggest off-road running event of them all — Ultra-Trail du Mont-Blanc (UTMB).Payson sat down with Christian to discuss his journey from Canada to Girona before the town became known as a cycling haven. They delve into Christian's decision to leave the WorldTour early, his entrepreneurial ventures, and that time he started a breakaway at Unbound. He also talks about why he switched from cycling to running, and how the current state of ultrarunning mirrors where gravel was a few years ago. Instagram: @theadventurestacheYouTube: Payson McElveen

Yannick a une façon vraiment intéressante de raconter ses anecdotes de course, à la fois analytique et humoristique. Je ne pouvais le recevoir sans jaser de conciliation famille-course-travail, car en plus de travailler dans le domaine de la santé, sa conjointe et lui ont quatre enfants. Pour s'entraîner en vue de ses objectifs ambitieux à travers la vie quotidienne, Yannick et sa conjointe sont passés maître dans l'art d'optimiser leur horaire!

These days, Katie Schide is living in France pursuing her passion as a professional trail runner. And, it's paying off — last year she took home the win at Ultra Trail du Mont Blanc (UTMB), a roughly 171-kilometer (about 106 miles) trail race with 10,000 meters of elevation gain. And just last week? She came in second at the UTMB OCC 50K, showing that she's got some range in the mountains. For episode 265, she's talking about how she got so good at this sport, growing up loving the outdoors in Maine and ultimately moving to Europe to immerse herself fully in the culture with partner and fellow trail athlete Germain Granger. Schide talks about what it's like to live and work with Granger abroad in a small town without many other English-speaking residents, and how the duo decides who does what race and when. Plus, she talks about getting her PHD in geology and how training and nutritional needs vary from race to race. Plus: Her best advice for anyone who wants to get on the trails themselves.
