Vous vous souvenez de ce que vous faisiez le 30 août 2003 à 4h du matin ?Vous étiez sûrement en train de dormir à cette heure-là…Topher Gaylord, lui, s'apprêtait à vivre une des expériences les plus intenses de sa vie.Ce samedi matin de 2003, l'Américain de 34 ans, directeur Europe pour The North Face, était à Chamonix, sous l'arche de départ de l'UTMB.Dans la fraîcheur de l'aube, ils étaient un peu plus de 700 coureurs, le regard fixe, gonflés à bloc, prêts à tout donner sur les sentiers …20 ans après ce premier saut dans l'inconnu, Topher Gaylord se souvient de tout : chaque col, chaque descente… chaque émotion de cette course qu'il a couru 11 fois. Arrivé 2ème en 2003, il fait partie des Américains qui ont le plus brillé dans l'histoire de l'UTMB.Nous nous sommes d'ailleurs interrogés sur le fait qu'aucun Américain n'avait réussi à remporter l'UTMB... mais c'était jusqu'à cette année ! Quelle prédiction !Il dit que rien n'égale cet ultra, qu'il est unique, presque magique… mais ce qu'il ne dit pas, par humilité sûrement, c'est combien cette course lui doit.Premier sponsor de l'UTMB avec The North Face pendant 12 ans, il a contribué à faire grandir l'évènement et à lui donner un écho mondial.Mais partenaire ou non, Topher Gaylord est avant tout un coureur passionné et inspirant !Un podcast UTMB GroupProduit en partenariat avec Lines Agency et Trails Endurance MagInterviews : Mathilde LaisneyTextes : Mélanie PoueyRéalisation : Mélanie Pouey et Mathilde LaisneyMusique originale et mixage : @homework_studio Si vous aimez ce podcast et que vous voulez le soutenir, n'hésitez pas à vous abonner et à nous mettre des étoiles !Pour ne rien rater de l'actualité de l'UTMB Mont-Blanc, rdv sur Insta : @UTMBMontBlanc et sur le site internet : https://montblanc.utmb.world/fr Hébergé par Acast.

Do you remember what you were doing on August 30, 2003 at 4am?You were probably sleeping...But Topher Gaylord, our guest today, was about to live one of the most intense experiences of his life.That Saturday morning in 2003, the 34-year-old American, European director for The North Face, was in Chamonix, under the starting arch of the UTMB... In the cool of dawn, with over 700 runners, pumped up, ready to give their all on the trails...20 years after this first run into the unknown, Topher Gaylord remembers everything: each pass, each descent... each emotion of this race. He ran the UTMB 11 times. He finished 2nd in 2003, and was a top 10 finisher a couple of other times. Topher is one of the Americans who have shone the most in the history of the UTMB...We wondered why no American had ever won the UTMB... but that was until this year! What a prediction!He says that nothing compares to this ultra trail, that it is unique, almost magical… but what he does not say, out of humility no doubt, is how much this race owes him.First sponsor of the UTMB with The North Face for 12 years, he helped to grow the event and to give it a global echo.But partner or not, he is above all a passionate and inspiring runner!A UTMB Group podcastProduced in partnership with Lines Agency and Trails Endurance MagInterviews: Mathilde LaisneyTexts : Mélanie PoueyProduction: Mélanie Pouey and Mathilde LaisneyOriginal music and mix : @homework_studioIf you like this podcast and want to support it, don't hesitate to subscribe and give us stars!For all the latest UTMB Mont-Blanc news, check out Insta: @UTMBMontBlanc and on the website: https://montblanc.utmb.world/fr Hébergé par Acast.

The show is hosted each day by professional athlete, Dylan Bowman.   Dylan is joined on Day 6 by Katie Asmuth, Topher Gaylord and Kim Gaylord. Topher and Kim helped found UTMB and have been here every single year since 2003. Dylan has been coming to Chamonix since 2013, exactly a decade. Katie is in Chamonix for the first time. They discuss the early results of the race and watch the livestream as more finishers come in.   There is laughter, there are tears, and this might be our favorite show of the week.

Welcome to Day 2 of Good Morning, Mont Blanc. This is the inaugural year of Freetrail's daily morning show, kicking off with the 20th anniversary of the Ultra Trail Mont Blanc (UTMB), the most important global event in the sport of trail running. The show is hosted each day by professional athlete, Dylan Bowman.   Dylan is joined on Day 2 by three incredible individuals: Topher Gaylord, Keith Byrne and Doug Meyer. Topher was instrumental in founding the UTMB and has been around since the very beginning. Today, he is still the highest placing American male in the UTMB, placing 2nd in 2003. Keith has been at UTMB since 2004 where he has held many roles at the race including, most recently, leading the race commentary. Doug Meyer wrote the book, The Race That Changed Running: The Inside Story of UTMB, and has been privy to many of the important stories behind this race over the years.   They discuss how Topher helped identify and join the UTMB as the founding sponsor when he was leading The North Face in Europe in the early 2000s and why he knew it was going to become one of the best races in the world.   Keith has a longstanding relationship with Catherine and Michael Poletti and pulls the curtain back on their dynamic. UTMB has been a passion project for the Polettis and, as Keith says, they have always focused on their values and what they believe is the spirit of trail running. The team discusses some of the disagreements and controversies that have grown from the race and how things need to shift to keep up with the developing sport and world.   Topher and Keith also discuss what it was like being part of The North Face family in the early days of race sponsorship. The race connected and created bonds with their work family that endure today. Watch on for more and make sure you subscribe to the Freetrail YouTube channel!
