    Edit: English subs are now available! Translations in French, Italian, Spanish and German are on their way this week 😊
    Hey everyone, thanks a lot for your amazing feedback already.
    We just wanted to let you know that we experienced an issue with the production of the subtitles for the movie. We're working on it and expect to be able to upload English subs in a couple of days, and then following with the other languages. We're sorry about that but if you look on the bright side, this gives you a good opportunity to take French lessons with our one and only Serge, and watch the episode a second time when the subs are here 😄
    Thanks for your understanding and support! 🙌

      Thanks! Glad to hear there is aid coming for us less educated Americans!
      P.S. One other thing for the future that would be nice is if we had labels telling us the names of each athlete that talks on screen (in text) who isn't explicitly mentioned. I feel like they deserve the recognition.

    It's really awesome to have access for free to this kind of videos, thank you so much Salomon, Courtney Dauwalter and François d'Haene. So much joy (and suffering), so much beauty in this sport and in the nature displayed in these two races. I hope that you'll have many more races to share with us! I guess the next step is to rearrange the calendar to run the Western state, the HR100, the UTMB and the grand raid and if you could bring back Kilian, that would be something legendary!

    I got into Mountain and Trail running in 2019 and I absolutely adore everything about it. I just completed the Sainte Lyon this weekend and it was just magical. I really admire the hell out of Courtney because she is a humble badass but I also love Francois (et Kilian) as I think he is just so cool and humble. I love the friendship between Jim and Francois and even at the UTMB with Francois stealing a gherkin from him at the ravito. Long live trail running.

    Beautiful account of a brutal race. Courtney is legendary and is such an ambassador for woman athletes of every discipline. It was a little disappointing to see bouquets of flowers given to the women on the podium. Women still have a long way to go to be treated equally as elite athletes but Courtney is a trailblazer for equality in athletic competition for women.
