Chasing the sunrise at Aiguille du Midi | Training for TDS at UTMB | Ep 6 | Run4Adventure

- Опубликовано: 15 сен 2024
- I took the cameras along on another epic training run for the TDS at UTMB, but this time we went up the other side of the valley from the campsite and followed the path of the 2nd highest cable car in the world - Aiguille du Midi! However, this training run was quite different to all the other runs I've done so far because we set off under the cover of darkness at 4.30am. There were two reasons for this - the first one being that the TDS starts at midnight so we'll be running through the night until the sun comes up, so it was good practice for the race. Secondly, I was testing out a waist lighting system from Nitecore which is a combination of their BLT10 running belt and their 400 lumens UT05 waist light. This training run is definitely worth a watch because I personally think I had some of the most stunning views of the trip so far, you can't beat running up a mountain as the sun comes up!
Thanks for watching, we'll see you in the next video and as always - stay safe and keep on running!

Your running video quality is truly unparalleled! So grateful for your channel!
Good afternoon Run4adventure and all the runners. Come on with Nike Zegama...¡¡¡ Well done, Loyd!!!. Here is my like. A nice week for everyone. ⛰🏃♂️☀️
Absolutely love these videos you are bringing us from Chamonix!!! Keep them coming! 👍💪
Love the VLOG! Cobwebs? Sometimes I get the web AND the builder clinging to me! Bloody freeloaders! 🇨🇦🕷🤣
Absolutely loving the coverage man! I hope the Chamonix tourist bureau is taking care of you. With any luck they might turn into a proper outdoor adventure destination with all of the pub you've been sending their way 😁. Keep it coming!
What an amazing play ground. You definitely have found all the sweets Loyd. 😋 👌👌
Absolutely endorse all that others have said Loyd. Love the scenery and your Vids are well made, informative and fun.
Definitely wish I was there moments in your Chamomix vids.. just breath taking. Eyes are writing checks my running legs probably couldn’t cash at the mo.. but would love a long hike up those trails. Thanks for taking us along!
Loving the series at Chamonix...
I wonder whether you can cover in a video the complicated qualification and entry process with the new lottery/stones system? I think would be super useful for lots of people. I'm keen to try and enter OCC next summer myself...
Loving these videos Loyd, enjoying watching your build up and the scenery is amazing 🤩 keep them coming 👍
Another great video, and your pronunciation of Aiguille du Midi gave me a good chuckle!😂 Good luck at the TDS!
loved this video Lloyd, these videos have been epic, thanks so much for the content
Epic one Loyd. Beautiful scenery. We are heading to Chamonix in late September for the first time. Have to put this climb on our "to do" list. Have a great race bud.
Definitely loving this awesome content:) very inspiring
Been packing my own little adventure bus this eve ready for the Gadolphin 10 km on Friday. Can’t wait :) :) many thanks
Very jealous and loving the footage!
Another great video. I did that route in reverse two days after the TDS. Unfortunately a DNF at Beaufort for me. My first two nighter and was feeling really tired. Also a bit nauseous for the first time ever. Wish I had gone on now and seen how I felt after dawn broke. Hopefully do it again some day. I got two sets of Harrier poles (one trekking and one running) and the Compressport belt for the poles after looking at your videos. Both are great.
Beautifully captured
Awesome vid, loved the views and thanks for the info on the waist belt!
great film, love the music choice too!
Great Footage and I thank you for staying safe. The nitecore waistbelt looks like an item I can use on my early morning hikes here in the Islands. Keep up the good work
Great viewing Loyd, you must feel on top of the world with how your training is going. Keep it up! 👍
Mate, you’re knocking it out of the park with these!
Great content Loyd! Thank you.
Loved the vid again Loyd! Will be in Chamonix for UTMB week myself as well, but probably not able to join the shakeout run unfortunately. Would be cool to bump into you any other time of the week. Good luck at TDS and enjoy!!!
As always Loyd yet another quality video, thanks so much for what you do and the effort you go through to keep us all informed, enthused and inspired. Best wishes Mark
Thanks for bringing us along, really great video!!!
Fab video, stunning views ❤️
Great video buddy, epic views. Liking the look of the nightcore waist belt. I am guessing its the Exodus for the race😁
Pushing new trails and worrying about safety in a Nike trail shoes?! Altitude really got the best of you Loyd 😂 (really waiting for the full review)
Loved this series Loyd, its been great to see Chamonix in all its glory, perhaps one day I'll hopefully make it out there. Looking forward to a little dot watching as the race draws near. Take care and all the very best for the adventure ahead.
Amazing video
That was just wonderful.. what an incredible place!
Another great video, loving the torches, thanks for sharing
Wow. Super jealous of that run. Tried several times to get up there during winter and weather stopped us.
Hi Loyd ...another great footage in Chamonix...don't worry about the french prononciation of L'aiguille du midi lol ( well how could i explain you that lol) 🤔...write that in Google traduction App and you can listen the prononciation 👏👏👏😉🇫🇷
l'ayg-wee (equal stress on each syllable). Gardez-vous en sécurité, et continuez à courir...
Can't wait to hear what shoe will you pick for the BIG day. Love the running t- shirt! What brand please
Went out for a run tonight, first run since covid two weeks ago, just a couple of km. Feel like there is a lot of work to do, though glad to get my motivation back. Been struggling mentally since the end May when I finished the Edinburgh marathon. Felt like I was back tonight 😊. Good luck with TDS Loyd!
It’s hard being knocked out because of covid or injury, and a challenge getting back in, especially when you notice your gains may have slid.. feel like I’ve been on a roller coaster with gains and losing them to injury and other stuck making it hard to get out the door. Good luck fella keep ya chin up. Well done with Edinburgh.. did that once, would love to do it again.
Loved this vid 😊
Cheers Sy, glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for watching 🙏😊
You need to stop this ‘trail porn’ it’s making me very jealous! Great job!
Great video Loyd. Interested in seeing which shoe you pic for the TDS. Speedgoat 5 for me in the CCC .
This looks absolutely beautiful, are you sure you’re not sponsored by Chamonix Tourism? ☺️ I’m thinking of heading over next summer just to explore!
great run Loyd! aw man i really need to get back on a proper mountain soon.
really interested in your next review of the endo edge. also, can't wait for your test of the mafate speed 4, though i realise that might take some more weeks.
S/LAB Genesis could be a cool shoe for the TDS if it is released on time.
Inspiring video and cool music. Who are the artists?
@Run4Adventure - Hi Lloyd, I'm heading out to Chamonix in a few weeks and would like to do this route. Can you remember roughly how long it took to get to the refuge? Cheers, Tom
It obviously comes do to how fast you can move in the mountains but it's a pretty good trail up to the refuge so I'd say around 2hrs 👍
It's a great route, hope you have a wonderful time in Chamonix 🏃♂️⛰️
Loyd
@@Run4Adventure nice one, thanks, looking forward to some more UTMB footage this year, love the videos mate
Mafate Speed 4 for the race
Amazing video
