What a day at UTMB. Day 4 is in the books. We bumped into some great people at the Expo and even got to hear a legend play piano.
Kicking off with the OG of trail running in India: Kieren D’Souza. He has spent the last few months in Chamonix to prepare for his 2nd CCC and is excited to kick it off tomorrow. His story is quite incredible and we are looking forward to getting him back onto the show. He lives in a city in North India 14 hours away from the next international airport…
During our lunch break we were honored by some piano play of one of the UTMB legends: Xavier Thevenard. Turns out he is not just a great runner, but also a fantastic piano player.
We got to interview one of the Vietnam’s stars, Nhon Trong, who is doing UTMB this year. Not a fan of the heat, he hopes for some cooler weather to unleash his training of the last few months in Vietnam and the Alps. Nhon is already an inspiration for many in Vietnam and is one of the key players in educating the next generation of runners.
Rounding up the Vietnam contingent, we got to talk to Hienka Tran, the Queen of Vietnam trail running and ‘mother’ of the Vietnam house in Chamonix. She shares with us why Vietnam is one of the places to watch for trail running globally and what needs to happen to have it grow even further
In the daily wrap up, Markus is joined by Ned to discuss the OCC results.
