UTMB MCC 2024 - Chamonix Trail Running Race

This is my personal experience running the UTMB MCC on August 26, 2024. The MCC is the opening event of the Ultra Tail du Mont Blanc and it is meant for volunteers and local residents. It is described as a "fun run for locals" which goes to show how insanely fit the locals are...

Thanks 👍

Great video to watch. Must have been amazing to take part. Question for you, how did you integrate the mapping? It really brought the scale of the run to life. Is it part of a Strava subscription?

Only 3 aid stations is pretty mean from UTMB...are they trying to save money ?

[@chamonixTrails]

Roughly 10km between each aid station is pretty standard for these races. I have done races with more distance and vertical gain between stations for sure

@@chamonixTrails And I have done a lot of mountain marathons in Austria and 3 aid stations are very definitely not the standard for that kind of distance. In fact the last race I did in Austria was 23 k and had 3 aid stations..
