UTMB CCC TDS Mandatory Gear What Im Using And How I Pack It

[@djh2son]

Watched your CCC updates all day! The runner tracking for the UTMB events are incredible. Way to make up ground on the field and go from 203 to 107! Beast mode!!! Looks like you had a great time and training paid off with that speed down the last peak. Just awesome to follow.

[@DanWhitehead]

Thanks dan and thanks for following... pretty ground breaking coverage of all the races I had a great time lying in bed watching utmb in bed and then walking down to watch the top guys finish... quite surreal!

[@kozepz]

Succes with the race Dan! I was in Chamonix yesterday and thought I had seen you. I'm the guy at 2.08 in the black shirt taking a photo when the train passes by.

[@DanWhitehead]

Thanks mate small world!

[@TheFODRunner]

Wow another great video! Can't believe all that gear fits in that pack so well!!

[@DanWhitehead]

thanks mate yep fits in there a treat

[@philipvondra5010]

Great stuff Dan, lots of good info in your vlogs and very honest assessments. Best of luck with the race.

[@DanWhitehead]

thanks philip

Another great video Dan. All the best for the race next week. Really helpful video regarding the gear you use as I'm doing my first 100km in two weeks (SCC Angelsea). Have been following your blogs over the last few months and they are full of great tips and thoughts. Have seen you on a few runs around here previously around the Valley lake (I'm most probably the only other bloke with a Ciele cap apart from you). Keep safe mate.

[@DanWhitehead]

thanks john hope the scc went well

[@ericlancaster2889]

Thanks for the gear info! Can't wait for your race and recap!

[@DanWhitehead]

thanks eric belated recap uploading now

[@tomdoppler1617]

CONGRATS!!! Looks you had a great and clever race - from 200+ down to 107!!!!

[@TMRCoaching]

Smashed it! Great running.

[@DanWhitehead]

Thanks mate!

[@DanWhitehead]

Thanks!

[@stewartliesnham3868]

Another good video, thanks for sharing. I like the UTMB hooded top. Good glove choice, I have those too 👍 I also checked out the coffee shop you recommended and wow! great coffee, wish I'd found that place sooner. Can't believe I didn't bring my aeropress, rookie mistake! All the best for the race. Oh, and totally with you on the taper issues, not a great place to taper 😩

[@DanWhitehead]

thanks mate was awesome to meet you hope you had a great race

[@DavidKuntschik]

@DanWhitehead I thought in the video you said you were going to link your gear in the description?

[@tomstalley3179]

The gloves are amazing what a design

[@spencem875]

Nice vids mate, nearly caught up with them all. Good luck with CCC 👍🏻

[@DanWhitehead]

cheers mate

[@DoctorCobweb]

nice setup. great to hear that your parentals are coming over for the race. all the best for the taper Dan, i reckon they always feel weird.

[@DanWhitehead]

thanks mate yep tapering sucks!

[@JavierISampedroTNF]

The last downhill felt so painful after +45km in my legs. I took it easy and didn't mind some runners passing me, but better arrive in one piece :)

[@DanWhitehead]

Painful forsure suprisingly my quads held up and I was still able to get down somewhat efficiently!

[@JavierISampedroTNF]

Dan Whitehead Looking forward your post race impressions video

[@JakeM218]

Great video! Any idea why water bottles are required and not a water bladder within the backpack?

[@punkinpunker]

Hey Dan. Useful vid, loving the mandolin gear. Can't see the kit list though?

[@punkinpunker]

Fuckin auto correct

[@briancollins6591]

thanks for the show and tell, some awesome kit. Can you get that Naked belt there in Cham? I'm doing the CCC as well and that is the best solution for poles I've seen.

[@DanWhitehead]

sorry about the late reply mate but no only directly through there website they are based in the usa and also a few retailers in hong kong stock them. hope you had a great race

[@whyareulooking]

Great video! Thanks! Can't find the gear list anywhere tho

[@mattgraham2639]

Being a fellow Aussie, what websites do you recommend for buying running gear, equipment etc? I noticed you are always opening up parcels, so I’m assume your buying online. Apart from buying direct from the maker, where else do you shop online? Cheers, matt

[@blakebedoya8000]

Hey Dan. What ever happened to your Salomon S/lab pack? Seems like you’ve been using the Nathan and now this one. Are you still using the Salomon or did anything come up since your initial review? Thx.

[@iainmski]

Hi Dan, Do you have a link for those gloves, look great, but can't find them?

[@jelledenbeir]

Sick quality content. Keep it up and good luck with the race! Did you set a goal pace for yourself?

[@DanWhitehead]

thanks mate I didnt really have a goal pace going into it no to many unknowns for me on a course like that just concentrated on a sustainable effort

[@wimdecoo4170]

Hey Dan, What size is your camelbak cause I'm inbetween M and L and thinking of making the switch from salomon to on of these. I heard the softflasks tend te leak, any problems there? Gave a good race Friday Thx

[@DanWhitehead]

Sorry about the late reply mate but I run a small I find they are a quite a roomy fit. In comparison the salomon 5l pack I fit the xs/s size but wear the m/l so when its loaded with gear its not so tight. hope that helps? the flasks leak if your not careful to put the lid on just right I ended up using the salomon 5l for the race just to be safe as I had only done a 30km run using the ultra pro.

[@GeorgeRussell9]

Go crush it Dan!!

[@DanWhitehead]

thanks george

[@RunQuixote]

Great Video - I did Sub - Greetings from Germany - CU

[@MrJosh6889]

You should get the naked band people to sponsor you, because your video just sold one.

[@DanWhitehead]

Nice one mate great piece of kit worked a charm during the race

[@korycavanagh]
