For the sixth(!!) year in a row, we’re livecasting the Ultra-Trail du Mont-Blanc on iRunFar’s Twitter feed. We’ll also be combining our Twitter feed with other possible news sources and encouraging all of you to join the discussion in the CoverItLive window below. We also have a full news stream without comments for those who prefer a clean interface. Finally, watch the event unfold live via UltraTrail.TV’s live video feed below, a video feed created by the race administration. We’re excited to help tell the race’s competitive story.
UTMB begins at 6 p.m. CEDT on Friday, August 28th. That’s 10 a.m. Mountain Time on Friday in the U.S.
