Beautiful video! Thank you so much for the precious info. I did the race in the last few days and ended up dnf despite having watched your detailed video several times. My race was going well, everything was going as planned. At 7:30 pm I was in Jochberg despite a strong storm caught on the ridge. I was fine but I needed to rest. I was counting on finding the planned rest area at the refreshment point but it had not been set up. I wanted to sleep for an hour and then face the climb and the second night rested and energetic. Everything around was wet and I could not lie down on the ground so I went back on the trail hoping to find something to rest at the next refreshment point. I retreated to Jochberger Wildalm because I was sleepy and there was nothing to rest in sheltered from the wind and cold. The very kind lady at the refreshment point had given me her camp bed, I tried to lie down but being outside I was getting shivers. I called the organizer to inform me of the withdrawal and they told me that they could not come up to pick me up and so I walked down the road to Jochberg to take the shuttle. I am saddened by what happened, I would certainly have finished the race if I could have rested. I did not feel like spending a second night without sleep. Having seen in your video the difficulties of the route with the bad weather that was there I considered that safety comes first. I contested the organization for the lack of a rest area, foreseen in the regulation. However, I have the wonderful experience I had during this race up until the withdrawal, I really enjoyed the route. See you soon and congratulations again.
Can't thank you enough for this. The race made a fool of me in 2022, privilaged to be getting another shot at it. The adjusted pace graph is validation of my estimated splits, which ebb and flow vs the cutoff and I just didn't know why. Also, those last 3 hills, going through the second night - wow thanks for making me aware just how tough they are. Will now be at least mentally if not physically prepared for those.
I can’t wait for this see ya soon my beloved city now in CA .. just a kid that grew up in the north shore - yeah it’s welcome home wow just wow - yes cA weather got me right haha although I am still a Boston guy no matter where I live 🦄🖤🏁
Wonderful video, have watched in at least 5 times. Analysis mixed with terrain views throughout is brilliantly made. Will be at Eiger101 this year 2024. Have you done CCC Gabriel? Could you compare them both?
Nice video, thank you! I took part in the 2023 edition and now was happy to see the course again on RU-vid. 🙂 Parts of the ascents and descents are very technical. Looking back it was a great adventure, a well organized but tough race in a beautiful surrounding.
hab vor auch den RK50 zu laufen, sind so "schneeketten" für die schuhe zu empfehlen zum überziehen auf dem gletscher? im video sehe ich glaube ich niemanden damit. ansonsten eher noch eine plastiktüte scheinbar zum runterrutschen am schnee :P
Ist halt Aufwand das rauf und runterzuziehen. Ansonsten hilft das bei Schneepassagen schon. Tüte zum Rutschen hat mal jemand probiert, hat aber nicht wirklich geklappt ;-)
@@RunningRaceReview danke für die antwort :) ok ich überleg es mir, sicherheit geht vor schnelligkeit. will nur heil ankommen. Schade dass das mit der Tüte nicht klappt, lohnt es sich denn überhaupt oder waren es nur eine kurze passage wo man runter fahren konnte auf dem arsch?
Great film! Gives a good impression of the trails on the Eiger Ultra Trail E101, but also on the E51 and E35, as they share the paths of the E101. Thanks a lot!
Wow, what a nice video, thanks! I was there last summer too but did only 75km. 140km seems to be very very difficult, especially technical terrain is uncompearable. Congrats! 👍🤠
Congratulations! Thanks a lot for the video : it really helps visualize the huge effort needed until the end at Verbier. The terrain is very technical lat some stages, like it was at Nice by Utmb (111 k; 6000 D+) on Sept. 25th 2022.
This is without a doubt the most detailed and well done video on the Großglockner Ultra Trail. Extremely useful for those who want to have a real idea of what to expect by participating in the race! Good job!
Thanks hybris, be aware: 2021 the running direction was reverted. So it will be other way round. I will do a new film next year with the new course direction and all details you need to know to prepare.
@@RunningRaceReview Thank you for the clarification! Simply all the uphills will become downhills and vice versa. In any case, the videos you made really help a lot to understand the type of trails. However I too will participate in the next race in July, so we will probably meet: maybe I will be the only Italian coming from Vienna :) my name is Pio. Can I contact you in the coming months to get some advice?
@@RunningRaceReview Hi Gabriel, as promised I take advantage of your experience to ask you for advice: do you think it is necessary to have Schuhspikes in the backpack for sections with snow/ice?
@@hybris2 Yes it does. The snowfields were not that long, that I took the time for mounting/dismounting, but if you take that time it will definitely make you faster in that section.
