Race reports and athlete perspectives
Release the Beast
Ben Dhiman's race report from his 2026 UTMB victory, where he led alone from km 32 and ran 18:16:29 — the fastest time in the race's history — arguing that the 100-mile distance has been raced far too conservatively.
UTMB 2026, My Goal of the Year
Baptiste Chassagne's behind-the-bib report from the 2026 UTMB — the finish line of a two-year project — where he set out to win, spent the race 'more chased than chasing', and finished 2nd in 18:47 behind Ben Dhiman.
The 90 km of Mont-Blanc
Baptiste Chassagne's behind-the-bib report from the 2026 90km du Mont-Blanc — the most stressful and brutal race he's ever run — where he finished 4th in 10:02:39 as a deliberate stepping stone toward his season goal, UTMB.
