As a HEMS medic, by virtue of what you described that was undeniably heat stroke. Wear that badge with pride, it takes a special character to push their body to that point.
Rookie here, video popped up as a recommendation on YT, obviously. Top quality content, world class scenery, and both Jeff & Audree captured what Jim Mckay stated decade's ago: " the human drama of athletic competition ". Thank you.
Funny to See the different approach that you took. Did the W in 2013 and wanted to self supply every thing. So big heavy Backpack and every thing for shelter etc.. There are no words to describe the pure nature force of the Winds down There. Even with 20+kg of Backpack and trekking poles you can barely stand on your feet. Totaly trusting on others to Do the O is pretty nervewereckinh to me. Let us See more videos like this.
That was so beautiful! I knew what was coming but was still wishing a different outcome. I do think as hard as that decision was, it was a good call. Well done!
Hi Jeff, thanks for giving a well balanced view and opinion on this. Curious if your feelings have changed at all in this time? Have you heard of when/if the "new" run by Gary Robbins will go ahead? You participate in other UTMB races - did this whole fiasco impact your decision to continue to do so? Just trying to gain more info on everything, as I decide whether or not to partake in the Whistler UTMB (which is likely not) Thanks!
We haven’t participated in a UTMB race since last summer, but definitely will again in the future. But not the Whistler race. It’s looking good for Gary’s race for 2025 💪
Way to go Audrey! it sucks to bow out or DNF, for sure. To call it quits and take care of an injury, takes strength, discipline and good head on your shoulders. Looking forward to both of your videos. Take care you two.
Again as always your videos are awesome! Funny thing an excellent new film just came out with Marianne Hogan with the title 'Petit train va loin'. Bravo for your accomplishment Audrey and your fabulous Jeff for crewing.
Most exiting race I've seen in a long time! This is really making me wanting to put this race on my bucketlist. Big congratulations on a great achievement. Immensely inspiring!
I really enjoyed that you too the time to go everything, it was fascinating to listen too. I think my main takeaway is don't race for the aid stations.
Well done Audrée, t'es solide d'avoir persévéré malgré la douleur dans tout ce dénivelé (D-, D+) et les portions super techniques. Jeff, thank you for another great film. Lots of little gems in this video, Kilian and Emelie, breathtaking views. I really enjoy watching your adventures.
Audree is so sweet, earnest, hard-working and humble- I often get emotional watching videos that feature her races. Another excellent video <3 Thanks for creating this content
