UTMB TDS 2019 - In 2019 I had my second UTMB experience. I travelled to Chamonix to take part in TDS, a 145km race with 10000m of elevation gain. Unfortunately I had been suffering with a foot injury which had prevented me running for 5 weeks prior to the race. This was not going to be pretty.

I feel your pain. I DNFed at the CCC in 2019. Arrived in La Fouly with 11 min to spare, having not eaten for many hours. The decision to give up is still heavy on my heart. Alps are means. Oh well, SVP100 next month and Les Templiers in October to get more points...

Excellent story Stephen, love that you are not afraid to share your journey's good and bad. You will smash it next time, I've no doubt.

@will_hargreaves 3 года назад

Great video Stephen. Thanks for sharing. I know it’s not the result you wanted, but your cinematic & story telling skills shine though to make it such an entertaining watch, that it would be a shame not to have put it together. Also most of your audience will be savvy enough to appreciate what a colossal challenge TDS represents, to the point that many (myself included) wouldn’t dare even try it. Even in this DNF you did way more vert than I’ve ever done in one race. And that before we even start talking about the altitude you were doing it at!!!

I’m sure you’ll be back to finish it, great video

Absolutley fantastic video(s) You're a master to Catch all the Beautiful and aweful-(bad/Hard) TDS for myself, now 2021😳

I did TDS at 2019 and enjoyed it very much. l like your video of CCC2018 and this video of TDS 2019 bring back my memories of 2019 at Chamonix. Thanks

@FilmMyRun 2 года назад

Thank you. I suppose I need to edit the 2021 TDS video soon too!!!

@linganpierre 2 года назад

@@FilmMyRun Looking forward to your new video~

@TheRunningMaster 3 года назад

Enjoyed that video, a great insight into ultra running. Can tell that was tough!

@markdawson2989 2 года назад

Thanks for another great video. Sad you didn't finish. I'm not too fast so am worried about the cut offs. I managed the CCC in 2019 and have a place in the TDS in 2022. Hopefully I can make it through two nights of running. Best of luck in your next entry into the TDS.

@danielstoica3624 2 года назад

Hi, Mark I am in a similar position, managed CCC/2019, hope to finish TDS this year. Back in 2019, I was very confident, with a good result at the thoughest ultra here, in Romania. Then I ignored serious stomac condition couple days before the race and that took a big toll upon me. I recovered my strenght late în the race, passing by Trient I felt better and better. This time I'll be in Chamonix area a week before the race, hopefully with a better race approach. Let's prey for a merciful weather not only for the days we enjoy the race, but for all days the other runners will do the same! Good luck to you for the race, stay away from injuries and enjoy the training for it!

@markdawson2989 2 года назад

@@danielstoica3624 I hope your training went well and you are enjoying Chamonix now. I had a broken rib a couple of months back which lost me a months training but have done quite a bit of training over the past 5 weeks or so. Hopefully enough to get through to the end. All the best for the TDS!

@79Batty 3 года назад

One thing I’ve really missed over the last year and a half is your brilliant videos covering your awesome adventures like this. Just looking forward to getting more of them in the future.

@EnricoBaldisserri 2 года назад

Stephen which model of actioncam did you use for the video ?

@FilmMyRun 2 года назад

Hey Enrico, I used the GoPro Fusion for this particular video

@bykez 3 года назад

Great to relive my own run TDS, that long climb in the heat was a killer. Thanks for the memories 👍

@amygreen1015 2 года назад

I can only imagine the disappointment after this.

@FilmMyRun 2 года назад

I know. Then last year the race was stopped because someone died and we had to turn around and go back. Hopefully next time I’ll get to the end.

@AndyUltra 3 года назад

Another great video Stephen. I've never fancied TDS, CCC, UTMB etc. Which is funny as i love the area and i love skiing there and go all the time. Meghan Canfield once told me 'Only pick the races YOU want to do'. I learnt my lesson and do exactly that now. Maybe one day I'll get the urge for one of these big French races. As in your video the views are spectacular. I do want to do the Tignes Ultra just down the road. Just because i want to retire there. By the way my friend Lucy Bartholomew in the background on 3:29 secs with flip flops on. I don't think she ran a race as she had just done the WSER100 again and was doing another race in the States later on.

@agukasem 3 года назад

Thanks for sharing your journey. I saw you at the Serpent Trail.Will there be a video of your race there? (Muddy AF).

@CoolInOlympia 2 года назад

The altitude must be tough!!!!!@!!!@!!!!@!

@FilmMyRun 2 года назад

It's just the length of the climbs which are tough. The altitude itself isn't too bad. Never higher than around 2600m

@johnmiller5630 2 года назад

Enjoyed that immensely. You have my utmost admiration for giving it a real go and telling it as it is. There’s always next time👏🏻.

@UDR-Channel 3 года назад

You really are good at making films Stephen this was a really good watch. Wish you made more

@markdawson2989 2 года назад

Great to watch your TDS race again just before heading over to Chamonix. I hope you conquer the TDS this year if you are taking part. This will be my toughest race so hopefully can make it. I loved the CCC in 2019.

@FilmMyRun 2 года назад

yes mark I will be on the start line again for TDS this year. Absolutely have to make the finish this time!! Which race are you doing?

@markdawson2989 2 года назад

@@FilmMyRun I'm in the TDS too. I'll just have to see how it goes. I had a broken rib which stopped me training for a month, but I've been training in our local Pentland hills the past five weeks, so hopefully can still make it round. I've never done two nights running before! All the best for the race!

@markdawson2989 2 года назад

@@FilmMyRun Did you finish the TDS race this year? I unfortunately dropped out at Beaufort as I couldn't eat anything around then and couldn't get any sleep the day before, resulting in being too tired on the second night of running.

@FilmMyRun 2 года назад

@@markdawson2989 hi Mark. Yes I finally managed to get it done. Sorry you had to pull out. It’s a bugger of a run!! Are you thinking about coming back next year?

@markdawson2989 2 года назад

@@FilmMyRun That's great. I wasn't thinking of going back as I found the heat really hard, my legs were fine though. Lack of sleep was tough with no sleep the day before! I have found myself entering the Snowdonia 100K though for 3 points now in May. Will see if I get selected one year for the race again? I'll know what to expect now. the mountain bike trail down to Beaufort did me in at 2:00am, it went on and on in the dark. My first double nighter.

@koproinsias 3 года назад

Greater effort. Great vid. Great man.

@forwardmotionrunning4481 3 года назад

Thanks so much for sharing your story Stephen, beautifully done as ever. A battle of perseverance and stubbornness. Hopefully doing the race next month, super excited but cr*pping myself, it's going to be tough as you've shown!

@FilmMyRun 3 года назад

I’ll see you on the start line. One thing is that the cut offs have been relaxed a little this year. There were a lot of DNFs in 2019 because of the tight cut offs, so I think they thought again and they have made it a little easier.

@forwardmotionrunning4481 3 года назад

We'll get to the finish. Some are even saying TDS is tougher than UTMB with the new route :D
