This is the last stretch towards UTMB. The last training sessions with considerable elevation gain. The big day is nearing. I am anxious, nervous and excited. In this film I take you on four runs around Chamonix which are part of my UTMB training. I also share my feelings and thoughts in the run up to the big event.

Bon Courage! 🏃‍♂️ Great video, looking forward to see the race video, will follow you on UTMB live tracker 👍 I also noticed in Chamonix a lot of runners don't acknowledge if you say hi, also anywhere within 500m of a lift or a car park it is the same 🤷‍♂️ I try to avoid the popular easy access areas and stick to the quieter trails, especially at weekends.

Thanks!! Hopefully the UTMB runners will be more friendly haha

All the best for UTMB Rafael. You've done everything possible to train for it as best as you could have. Hope it goes well. Will be following your journey on livetracker and cheering you on. Love watching your videos and I find them absolutely amazing. The wonderful person that you are comes through in how you're able to capture in words and articulate your thoughts so wonderfully. You are very inspiring my friend. Keep digging and sharing with us!

Dude you did it! Huge congratulations for this incredible achievement 🎉 i have been following you for a while and you've been a massive inspiration for me. honestly i have no idea how you managed to keep moving for almost 44 hours, that requires some next-level mental strength and will power. Cant wait to hear about your race 😀 All the best for your recovery!

@rafaelhidalgo Год назад

Thanks so much! Spot on! The mental aspect was paramount. But i didn’t know whether my mind could truly be stronger than the body and the body stronger than we think.

Amazing trails! ❤ See you at the starting line, "Conquest of Paradise" awaits.

@rafaelhidalgo Год назад

I already have goose bumps thinking of that!

Thanks a lot! Give me a shout if you see me!

Such a joy to be on those trails, soaking in as you said. I was lucky to be doing OCC in 2016, still remember those memories. Wish to go back one day. Best wishes for race day and with no pressure. Work is done and ready to immerse.

@rafaelhidalgo Год назад

Thanks Javier fingers crossed 🤞 I guess we never really feel totally ready, but hopefully I am 🙏

@@rafaelhidalgo it's a big commitment to toe that start line. My longest distance so far is 100km as a team of 4 when I did Oxfam Trail walker in late 2015. Since then I have done other races but max 50km, I still have the feeling that I want to accomplish something big on my own (if wife allows me, hehe) maybe one day it comes. My respect to those like you who dream big and try to accomplish such a big feat. All my support! Vamosss! 💪🏻💪🏻

@rafaelhidalgo Год назад

@@JavierISampedroTNF thanks! It’s not easy especially with a family! I’ve had my issues on that end. It’s a lifestyle. For me and probably many of us it’s near impossible to balance… hope you find your equilibrium point. As you say: VAMOS!

@noelschwarz1016 Год назад

Have a great and safe race, Rafael. I will be watching your progress on the UTMB site from Australia. All the best!

@rafaelhidalgo Год назад

Thanks Noel!! Great Australian vibes!

Thanks!!

@ianl4518 Год назад

Another great film. You've done the work and 'the hay is in the barn' to use an expression in English. I wish you all the best for your big race. I heard MCC are having to use the 'cold kit',

@rafaelhidalgo Год назад

Thanks! Its gonna be a heck of an adventure! Yeah MCC are going to have a cold one! Hopefully the weather turns for us on Friday 🙏

@jamstaa69 Год назад
