With an estimated 20 million participants since 2010, trail running has been one of the world's fastest growing sports, according to the International Track and Field Federation. Starting in 2023, 25 races around the world will send runners to the UTMB, making the race the Super Bowl of trail running. Televised live around the world in 4 languages to millions of viewers, and attracting more than 100,000 visitors to Chamonix itself, the iconic race is to trail running what the Tour de France is to cycling. This book is the first inside look at the race itself, and will appeal to both those who love the race and its critics.
