Get ready for a thrilling Alps trail running challenge with 2,222 meters of unevenness from Champery to Haute Cime. Join us as we run up and conquer the Haute Cime for an adrenaline-pumping adventure in the Swiss Alps. Enjoy the breathtaking views and intense terrain in this exciting adventure!

Embark on an exhilarating trail running journey with me, as I take on the scenic and challenging slopes of Switzerland's pristine mountains. Inspired and driven by the trail running legend, Kilian Jornet, I aimed to capture the essence of the perfect 2'222 meter ascent - from the quaint town of Champery at 1'035 meters, culminating at the breathtaking Haute Cime peak, standing tall at 3'257 meters.

As the morning light kissed the Swiss Alps, a revelation hit me aboard my train to Champery. The exact difference in altitude between my start and finish points was a beautifully rhythmic 2'222 meters. This serendipitous number sequence intensified my excitement and passion for the adventure that lay ahead.

🏔️ "Today's the two - two - two - two day!" 🏔️

Throughout this expedition, you'll witness my strides echoing the energy of Kilian, as I alternate between sprinting with wind-kissed cheeks and taking resolute walking strides. While the terrain may have sometimes demanded a slower pace, my spirits were never tethered. Navigating the lunar landscape of 'Col Susanfe' at 2'494 meters, battling gusty winds at the summit and the eventual triumphant ascent to Haute Cime, every moment is a testament to endurance, inspiration, and the beauty of the Swiss Alps.

However, this isn't just about reaching the peak or recording a time. It's a tribute to Kilian Jornet, who introduced me to the thrills of trail running and the philosophy of traveling light for maximum speed and efficiency in the mountains. With the ethereal backdrop of Switzerland and the rhythmic mantra of "two - two - two - two", join me on this memorable ascent, as we celebrate not just the destination but every heartbeat, every breath, and every step of the journey.

So, tighten your shoelaces, breathe in the fresh alpine air and let's embark on this trail running adventure together. See you at the summit and beyond! 🌄🏃‍♂️🌲
