  • Finally made it the whole way around Mont Blanc. 4 week training block working our way around the UTMB route has been epic. Hopefully I can put it all together on Friday (and Saturday (and hopefully not Sunday too)).

    Sarah did an amazing performance! I followed along on the livestream, congrats! I wish you all the best luck in completing your journey around Mont Blanc in a few days! You can enjoy a lot of beers after the race 😅

    Have a blast throughout your UTMB adventure, Luke. No luck is needed because you have put in so much work to prepare for this challenge. A huge hug and good luck to Sarah for her TDS adventure. Can't wait to follow you both around the alps.

    Best of luck for the race. Loving the UTMB content. I met Harry Jones recently, turns out I live right by him and he seems like a top bloke.

    @vic6820 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The main point in the race for stomach problems, that i've seen, is after Courmayeur. Everyone eats a ton of sugar in gels and liquids then they eat a bowl of the noodle soup and next thing you know is they can't hold it down. Everyone is different but personally I aim to eat as much normal food as possible. At Courmayeur, I would go for the pasta instead of the soup. Good luck anyway.

    • @lukewbarrett
      @lukewbarrett  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Pasta comes recommended. Noted. Thanks!

    All the best for the big loop Luke! It´s an insane undertaking 🤪! Have fun and take care!!!
    (btw, who´s flying the drone while you´re running?)

    • @lukewbarrett
      @lukewbarrett  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks mate! Drone operation is all me. A few tricks and auto modes help keep things looking slick.

    • @neoniquestudio
      @neoniquestudio ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@lukewbarrett Whaaat? That´s really crazy. So much effort for the footage, awesome! When I´m running I´m already happy if I manage to take one snapshot at the summit 😂

  • @sarahtapp4597
    @sarahtapp4597 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Good luck crewing, I think you’ll find it harder than racing…particularly given the athlete profile.

    • @lukewbarrett
      @lukewbarrett  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      You will always be my biggest test of endurance 🥰

  • @Bongue_
    @Bongue_ ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Lovin the series, good stuff. Also how much will the energy gels run you, is precision energy the best value?

    • @lukewbarrett
      @lukewbarrett  ปีที่แล้ว

      For sure precision is best value for me 😂. I think their bulk discount makes their carb/$ ratio pretty competitive.
