Hi friends, it’s UTMB Week, always good motivation to head out on the trails and run through multiple countries with thousands of extremely excited fans cheering you on along the way.
Officially called the “HOKA UTMB Mont-Blanc,” it is the world’s biggest trail running event, “Held across three countries in the heart of the Alps – France, Italy, Switzerland, the prestigious UTMB World Series Finals are held in the 3 key races of the HOKA UTMB-Mont Blanc: the OCC (50K), CCC (100K) and UTMB (100M) every year at the end of August.”
The elite fields for all three of these races are stacked with top runners worldwide. The OOC starts on August 29 and the CCC and UTMB start on August 30.

Have a great week and please invite friends to join our Philly Trail Runners group.
Great to see Tom and Bryan crushing Ridley Creek Trails, a place where I regularly get lost.
Let me know what races or fun stuff you have coming up. I’m thinking about the Wild Goose Trail Festival in North Jersey at the end of September.
Stay hydrated, Jeff
