Description

Book Synopsis: Ultra-marathons are not the preserve of the fitness elite - with hard work and solid training ordinary people can take part. At first 100k and 5000m may seem intimidating but, as experience grows, this turns into an achievable adventure in the Alps. Starting with the flagship UTMB ‘Courmayeur Champex Chamonix’ (CCC) race, this book traces a journey across Europe ending back in Chamonix with the ‘Sur les Traces des Ducs de Savoie’ (TDS). The races on this journey include UTMR, Ut4M, Transylvania 50 and 80, South de France 100, Arctic Ultra, Lakeland 100, and Ecotrail events in Oslo and Paris. Each event is covered in detail so you know what to expect should you decide to enter - not just the race but also some of the interesting places you can visit on your travels getting to the events. Written from the back half of the pack, the steps to success are unpicked and laid out (including how to deal with a ‘Did Not Finish’) showing what is possible with planning, training, self-belief, and a touch of luck. Come with me on a journey into the night.
