Experience my UTMB CCC 2021 day and night from the shuttle bus, start, views, aid stations, to the finish!

On 27 August 2021, I ran the UTMB CCC 2021
(Ultra Trail du Mont Blanc CourmayeurChampexChamonix),
one of the most prestigious ultramarathon events in the world.

This is a video recording my experience of the day, a day I've been dreaming of after trying 3 years in the UTMB lottery. It also serves to provide information along the CCC course.

It was a beautiful day with amazing scenery, and lots of amazing runners along the way. Watch along to see the beautiful views, check out the aid stations, and experience my day.

I hope this serves as a record for myself, and provides good motivation and information for future UTMB runners.
