Agence Clerc at UTMB 2024

August 30, 2024, Chamonix-Mont-Blanc, 6:00 PM, Benoit sets off for the second time on the UTMB, the Ultra Trail du Mont Blanc! This is his second attempt after 2023, where he had to drop out three-quarters of the way through the race. To recap, it's a legendary and beautiful 177 km trek around Mont Blanc with 10,000 meters of positive elevation gain. Surrounded by his loved ones, emotions run high at the starting line.

After a strong start over more than 130 km, ahead of his predictions and satisfied with his successful management of nutrition and hydration, Benoit starts to struggle a bit toward the end of the course. However, he hangs on and manages to cross the finish line in front of the Chamonix church with his two daughters.

Ultra Trail running is a passion for Benoit and Thomas, and it reflects the values and vision they share at the Clerc Agency.

Perseverance / Resilience: Bouncing back after the 2023 dropout, analyzing the reasons, improving, and setting out again to complete an unfinished project.

Passion: Hiking the mountain trails has been a true passion for years.

Preparation: Completing a UTMB is no coincidence. It required hundreds of hours, thousands of kilometers, and hundreds of thousands of meters of elevation gain and loss over recent years to be physically ready. A local statistic: 37 times up Mont-Veyrier in 2024!

Team spirit and sharing: His partner Thomas, his wife Audrey, his daughters Charlotte and Juliette, and his longtime friends Camille, Matthias, and Baptiste supported him throughout the race—providing indispensable logistical and moral support to complete the course under the best conditions.

Endurance and pushing beyond limits: Over 40 hours of uninterrupted racing, 177 km covered, 10,000 meters of elevation gain, and two full nights of walking and running.

Emotion: Experiencing such an adventure deeply moved us and will leave us with eternal memories.
