For the seventh(!!) year in a row, we’re livecasting the UTMB 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. Finally, we also have a full news stream without comments for those who prefer a clean interface. We’re excited to help tell the race’s competitive story! UTMB begins at 6 p.m. CEDT on Friday, August 26th. That’s 10 a.m. Mountain Time on Friday in the U.S. Special thanks to Altra for making our live race coverage possible.
