Thanks Finn, appreciate all that you do 🙌

Enjoy your video so much.. brings back the memories of Chamonix.. Can't wait to watch the updated version with new Champ Jim and Zack at the finish! Thanks!

[@NigelLawrence-xm2uo]

Iv had the pleasure of doing the mount blanc marathon twice, I think one of the hardest marathons in the world, I was 48 the first time and 49 the second chamonix is such a beautiful place

[@timluc0428]

Guess you are going to remake this video now. Walmsley and Zach were INCREDIBLE!

[@KeepRunningBro]

I’m in this year! Thanks for the history

[@theultratrailbreakdown]

Nice! Hope you have an awesome experience. Thanks for watching, appreciate the comment

[@furryfury.]

Thoroughly enjoyed this video! Don’t think anyone else tried to cover the UTMB history. Brilliant as always.

[@theultratrailbreakdown]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@nuttychem]

What a video! Thanks for making this!

Brilliant video, can't wait to follow along 🙌

[@UltraAdventures]

Great summary video, thanks! I ran this last year, and it did not disappoint (and just posted a video on my experience). Can't wait for the 2023 race! Keep up the amazing videos!

[@theultratrailbreakdown]

Thanks for watching! Awesome, hope you had an amazing race, I've added your video to my 'watch later' list, looking forward to checking it out!

[@robertprosser7279]

It’s super impressive to see how quality your videos have been considering how recent your page is. I love the stuff you put out-it’s thoughtful and I often find myself listening to your commentary and wondering if you went into my head and stole my thoughts. Keep up the great work and thanks for such quality content:-)

[@theultratrailbreakdown]

Thank you, that’s such amazing feedback, glad you’re enjoying the channel 🙏

[@GreatWhiteWine]

Great work! Can't wait for the race, I am pretty sure that the Tom Evans VS Jim Walmsley will be epic. And I agree with you, Jeff Pelletier did an amazing job to document it last year!

[@theultratrailbreakdown]

I can’t wait either, I’ve got Petter Engdahl in the mix as well, maybe my pick for the win but I can’t decide. Tom and Jim will be up there for sure though!

[@joshsmith3598]

@@theultratrailbreakdown Zach Miller and JW had an epic race.

[@cellohmd]

Awesome to get some of the history of the race. And now 2023 UTMB winners with 1st male, 2nd male, and 1st female all being American!

[@Psyko327]

Thank you!!

[@joelpm06]

Great video

[@alpyoruk]

Loved it thanksss

[@1519Spring]

Time for an update! 2023 rewrites history!

[@patrickcarroll334]

Great work bud

[@joshsmith3598]

Walmsley finally broke through and wow did he shine. Seemed he learned to evenly spread his pacing...finally. Love to see him and Killian race in 2024.

[@benny911]

Hopefully Tom Evans gets the double this year! great vid!

[@theultratrailbreakdown]

I hope so too! Although a fresh legged Jim is surely the favourite this year. Although my top pick isn’t either of them

[@bernhardneumueller]

i would love for petter to win, but could also be tom@@theultratrailbreakdown

[@matthewvanleeuwen9086]

Excellent video!

[@theultratrailbreakdown]

Thank you very much! 🙏

Daulwalter baby!

[@theultratrailbreakdown]

Would not surprise me if she won outright

[@joshsmith3598]

@@theultratrailbreakdown She is the GOAT.

[@luischang2566]

Impressive. However, I wonder, is trail running still in an early stage? No massive participation from Africa talent yet. World records will be more impressive when you have the best talent out there participating.

[@justincoleman7856]

And of course this guy's video was released before the historic American victories that were just recently announced...

[@viliusjorudas4347]

Have you skiped 2016? 😮

[@vilmarojas693]

if going to this race is not so expensive maybe you can see asians and south americans or other not rich country joining this race with their best talent, but its in euro, third world countries cant afford this expensive simple race.

Wait, Western States isn't the most prestigious ultra on the planet?? 😢 Only kidding 😉 "prestigious" is one of the more ugly words in the English language.

Brilliant video!
