Thanks!! See you soon 🙏☺️

Hallo!! Danke dir 🙏 Ja es sind die Trabuco Max 3. Sie waren ok für den Ultra. Die Sohle war für den nassen Terrain am Abend nicht gut genug. Im Schlamm sind die wirklich unbrauchbar. Werden schwer und trocknen nicht. Im trockenen leichteren Gelände finde ich sie super. Hast du die Hoka Tecton X 2 probiert? Sind leicht, gut gedämpft und etwas breiter. Trocknen auch sehr schnell wenn es nass wird.

@@chris.schmied Danke für den Tipp! werde ich auf jeden Fall testen :) Beim Trabuco gebe ich dir vollkommen recht! Freue mich schon auf die nächsten Videos! LG aus Graz

Thanks a lot Jason 🙏 It was an amazing experience. That day in Salzburg was just crazy. Glad I finished this time. Hope your trail season is going well :))

Danke dir! War ein langer Tag 😄

Danke dir! War ein langer Tag…:)

Danke!! Am Abend hat es kurz geregnet…aber nur so 20 min 😅🙏

Thanks a lot! The longer the distance, the bigger the adventure :))

Thanks a lot! This was a very beautiful trail. Def want to come back again. Had a lot of beer the last 2 weeks 😅 🍺

Really depends. About 4 hours for the average hiker.

@@chris.schmied thank you Chris for your information I be going in cable car hoping you well and having great summer

@@chris.schmied have a great day chris greetings from Scotland

Hey! Sorry…not for trail running.

There is a dedicated parking lot for this hut. Takes about 30 min to drive up from the valley. A bit off-road. You don’t need a four wheeler. But I wouldn’t drive up w a sports car.

@@chris.schmiedThank you … you’ve inspired us to take this hike soon.

Glad you found it helpful :)) Enjoy the trails ⛰️💪

Very good shoe as long as the trails are dry. Even for the ultra distance. Better than version 2.

Thanks for the advice !

Do you want to do faster runs or long trails? I would go w the Mafate. They are a bit better for long distances. ( in my opinion )

@@chris.schmied Ty bud yep i prefer focus on confort first :)

Glad you found them helpful :))

Great job on your finish! Especially in that time and those conditions. 💪 Now that you mention it, i have to agree with you on the shelter situation. I had to take shelter in some storage room. It wasn’t even warm and almost no space to sit. Some Ultra races I’ve done in the past had tents with heating lamps, even when the weather was actually good. This would have helped a lot of runners that day. ( or all )

@@chris.schmied It probably would have helped you a lot. I was 17th at the one moment and started to shake just like you, had 15 km till finish, wanted to quit, but guys at the aid station said I have to wait for a bus maybe 1,5h, so I figured it was about the same to finish. There was no shelter by the way! So i filled my two bottles with hot tea and wrapped my self in the safety blanket! That’s haw i got to the finish.. Good God what a nightmare that was, still shaking.

Definitely would have helped. Just need to look forward now. Hope you also have another race this season you can hopefully enjoy :)

My knees and hands were hurting from the cold. I couldn’t fuel for a bit cause my mouth was so numb. That was a very hard section. Hopefully you will have a better run next time!

Thanks Steve! We will see what happens in 2025 :)

I heard that it would have gotten a lot worse. Crazy conditions!

Thanks a lot! Wish I could have gone further!

Thanks Hannes! Congratulations on your finish! You did a good job in keeping warm 💪👌

Thanks Jan!! Was nice to meet you. Hopefully next time under different circumstances! 😅 Definitely a revenge run next year ⚔️ Have a great trail season ⛰️💪

Danke Tom! Bin sehr froh über die Entscheidung. Mann lernt immer dazu und freu mich schon aufs nächste rennen! Bis bald ⛰️💪

Yes! Can only look forward and be glad that we are healthy and keep on training 💪🙏

Thanks Davey! Definitely learned a lot!

I did 80k in T-shirt with waterproof jacket on. Somehow I was never cold, only problem was when I broke my pole on first descent, because I always run with poles. It was harder after that, but managed under 11 and half hours. Last part that you didn't have to run was really sketchy and dangerous. Slippery, narrow trail with raging water below...

@@sip5123 the 80km were the last 80km of the 100, right? I heard they installed a rope after nockstein, that's how bad it was! Did you have warm pants at least? I hope i never break my poles! Beware of the carbon, the splinters are very nasty and i was told they can cause cancer.

Thanks!! We will make it next year 💪⛰️

@@leonda4817​​⁠Yes and by looking at the footage first 20 wasn't that bad, it only got worse with every hour and kilometer. Crazy that they let smaller distances even start. I've had my thighs I've used all winter, maybe running in snow helped.😅 But they were totally soaked very soon, I need to get something waterproof. Thanks for the warning about carbon, luckily it was a clean break and I've already ordered new ones.

@@chris.schmied We will for sure, and even better prepared!

Thanks a lot Kim :) It’s a really beautiful trail. You will love it!

Dankeschön!! Ja der Mozart 100 war hart heuer. Bringe bald ein Video raus.

I don’t take salt tablets. I consume salt at the aid stations. Usually w some tomatoes or crackers.

The view from Schafberg is amazing. I prefer Untersberg bec of the alpine feeling you get there. Less crowds and steeper climbs. Difficult choice.

Actually, it is hard to find a mountain in this region, where you don't have a great view. Untersberg is more difficult, you should have some mountain experience, because most routes have some exposed sections, and tourists tend to underestimate these routes. It is also physically more challenging than Schafberg, but there are also more difficult routes onto Schafberg. So, rule #1 is to really plan your hikes, because it can get quite tricky very fast. Also, do not trust single sources, because often different people will tell you very different things about any mountain 😉

@@chris.schmied It was easier to get to Schafberg with public transport so I went there. However, the hike was mainly forest and car road. So the hike was not so great, but the view at the top was stunning.

Thanks for the advice :) I will check them out!

Nice! I love running downhill :)

How did it go!? I unfortunately had to DNF. Hope you had a good experience

@@chris.schmied Sorry to hear that! Well, i had to DNF too. In Tiefbrunnau, 32km. I missed the cutoff time, because the mud slowed me down way more than expected. I paced reasonably from the beginning (~6:00 min/km, flat terrain), then lost maybe 10min in the traffic jam in glasenbach, at the first singletrail. Beeing at the back of the pack, all the singletrails were a huge mess already. However I did fairly well and only after Hof-aidstation i realized that the cutoff could be dangerous to me. Filbling-mountain was a complete disaster then and i had huge problems with the mud. It was barely walkable and i lost so much time, despite feeling fit and motivated. The cold wind was really harsh and i have to admit that i was ill-prepared and freezing pretty badly. I slipped out in the mud and had a crazy calf-cramp! Then i arrived too late and got drawn out of the race. Half of the runners there where surprised they didn't even make the cutoff, because they felt they were doing ok for a 100k race. The cutoff was pretty unfair IMHO, as the 5 hours are reaonable for good conditions, but more on the tight side. Mid-pack runners who paced conservatively/reasonable in the beginning didn't make it that day. If anything, the cutoff in tiefbrunnau tempted people to rush the slippy downhill down. Anyways, it was a great experience nonetheless and i learned a lot! As a consequence, i bought some quality raingear from compressport and merino socks and longsleeves. I'm now motivated to train in the rain, which i tended to avoid previously. Another upside is, i get another year of good training before finishing my first 100km race. So i can aim for a good time, while having a good time ;) How was the race for you?

I’m afraid it is. Not by much.

I agree! I really enjoy my adjustable poles. (Which i rarely use cause I can’t put them on my vest) I mostly use them for long hikes. The ones from Leki you got sound like a good choice.

I wouldn’t recommend them. As a trail hiker I would get the Salomon Genesis, if the trails are technical. If the trails are easier then maybe the Hoka Speedgoat.

​@@chris.schmiedThank you, yup really like the Genesis!

i bought them for hiking .....for me way too soft and cushy . on tech trails they are a nightmare for me . vibram outsole the only positive for me .

Thanks!!! Your comment means a lot to me 🙏😄

Same, the heel slip is crazy, made worse by tiny laces making it almost impossible to tie a runners loop, and overall but a big heavy clunky mess.

@JohnM-xr6ch and 20 bucks more than any other comparable shoe. The grip was good and the midsole is soft but those should be a given on high stack trail shoes. I tried but I stopped liking Nike along time ago and this was a harsh reminder.

yeah I think I'm going to return mine. They feel heavy and hot and no toe bumper sucks

EVERYONE IS DIFFERENT. Foot Fits. Gait. ETC. Glad you found what works for YOU. Cheers!!

@jt.8144 yes of course or Nike would be out of business. Someone enjoys them.

Thanks a lot! Yes, don’t want to get injured 😉

That’s great!! You will have a great experience for sure! It’s always good to be intimidated and respect the new distance. I can’t wait to tackle my first 100 miler here in the alps. Good luck!!!

Thanks a lot!! Trails are awesome :)) More videos are coming 👍

Thanks 🙏

Thanks a lot!! Can’t wait to give it another go!
