Nice to see a video on UTMB from a guy not on superhuman level, gives me a much better idea what to expect... bonuspoints for being a fellow belgian ;)

Go Belgium! So many beautiful parts of the course I have not seen before in other videos makes your video especially fun and interesting. Congratulations on a well-executed race. You looked great at the end! So excited and happy for you.

Great video, it was honest and good to see someone's perspective from the back of the pack.
I did the same race and was about 2 hours behind you, glad you highlighted the last 50ks as being very tough :) 
Congratulations on the finish, enjoy the recovery!

Yes that's me Herman! The blue board shorts. Keeping the trail running Down Under for 2025 - 2 X 50km races then see if I can get into the Australian Miler championships in November. Big Euro focus then is TOR330 in the Aosta Valley September 2026! This will be a big step up for me - 330-350km and 25, 000m+ vertical.

Great video dude! Awesome to see a non professional athlete's perspective, mainly loving the incredible views!! Vert well done for going on this extraordinary trip!

[tjflash]

Thanks for sharing the adventure. You are a “real athlete”!

[JohnWilliamson-ss]

Herman!! No way! I just clicked on this video and saw you! It's John Williamson from Australia - we met up near La Flegere on the Monday doing recon and then ran into each other a few times on the race - one I particularly remember was at Arnovauz before the climb of Gran Col Ferret. So cool to see your videos. Wondered how you got on in the race. Was such a great adventure,

Thank you so much for sharing your account of this years race. We were staying in Les Contamines during the build up and saw the TDS runners but left before UMTB.

Loves the fact you took time to enjoy it and your honesty of the fact of you missed the time cut you would still be happy.
