“As the de facto number one ultra runner in the US, who is Jim Walmsley going to learn from? There’s no one else for him to learn from. So he had to go become neighbors with Francois D'Haene. That’s genius. Why not just go be neighbors with the person who’s won the race 4 times and learn how to do it? It makes total sense to me. And you know what? Jim won and Zach didn’t.”
Finn and Brett hop on the pod to discuss everything UTMB — how the race was presented, the impact of Jim and Courtney’s victories, new storylines now that an American man has finally won the thing, insights from the male and female top 10 finishers, the golden tickets secured at CCC, and whether the Americas Major shifts away from Canyons in 2024.
