When the uphill takes it all Nadir Maguet
Vertical races for vertical specialists I don’t remember exactly when I took part in my first vertical race, but I remember vividly where it was. I was a kid, and in the autumn with the ski mountaineering committee, we would always go and run the Kilomètre Vertical® de Fully. A thousand metre height gain developed over not even two kilometres along a very steep saddle in a small village in Switzerland. The most iconic of the socalled ‘only up’ routes. I remember not having trained very well, so much that my father asked me if I was sure of competing... Doubts aside, I finished the race on the podium of the junior category, which helped me to understand that this was the sport for me. Personally, I prefer to run this kind of race or at most Skyrace over long distances, I am convinced that they are better suited to my current age, body and mentality. I believe that when in our youth we can put all our energy play, later, developing as an athlete
resistance will come by itself, as well as the search for new challenges and new limits to overcome, and thus, I am happy to test myself on a few longer races. Having to coordinate two seasons, the skialp and the skyrunning seasons, I have learnt over the years to manage my resources well thanks to the help of my trainer Stephanie Jimenez and currently I get to do around fifteen running competitions that adds up to almost another thirty on skis.
It is important not to accumulate too many races in the summer to avoid arriving drained to the winter season, even if, at the same time I also try not to stay away from the starting lines for too long: I like the adrenaline that only the bib pinned to the top can bestow and for this reason too Verticals are a good compromise. If I ran long races I
could only do two or three during the summer, having to deal with a much longer recovery times, while with the Vertical the situation is different. Recovery times are fast, and if you want (without overdoing things) you can already run again the following weekend. The Vertical races are also very useful and in some ways preparatory to winter ski mountaineering activities also because they keep the engine speeds high and get you used to being driven to the limit, which in sky competitions is a bit more rare because they must be managed differently ,and uphill rhythms are generally just lower. To get ready for an “only up� competition it is necessary to work on uphill resistance and speed. There is no need to spend hours and hours out and about. With a little, good quality training you can achieve good results and it is for this reason too that I would recommend newcomers to the world of racing to take up mountain competitions. Anyone who has never raced can certainly not think of trying a trail run or an ultra. In the Verticals, physical traumas are almost absent except for the simple muscle recovery times required and for those who are newcomers to the sport they represent a good testing field to try and understand how different and important it is to manage forces correctly. So they could be a great starting point and then on might decide to gradually raise the bar towards other race formats. I don’t really have many suggestions to give, in these types of competitions, athletes set off at full speed and end the race sprinting to the finishing line. Maybe participants should pay more attention to the start: many think that these are fast races, however you can find yourself racing for over
half an hour, amateurs may even race for an hour, in these cases correct energy management can change the finishing time by tenths of seconds. In this discipline tenths are like the hundredths of seconds in alpine skiing: which means winning or losing the race. Speaking of products, on the other hand, I feel I have some good advice to give: for some years I have been using La Sportiva VK, a shoe designed and conceived for pure verticalists that reaches 200 grams. The feeling of lightness is indescribable and thanks to its construction it wraps the foot like a sock. It almost feels like running barefoot !!

DISCOVER THE MOUNTAIN WITHIN THE ULTRA ATHLETE MICHELE GRAGLIA
beyond the ultra The history of ultrarunning dates back to the ancient Greek’s times but only in this very last decade this fascinating discipline has risen to notoriety allowing anyone, “brave” enough to enter an ultra distance race, to experience the indescribable feeling of pushing their own boundaries, exploring their full potential. Running beyond 26.2 miles and becoming an ultrarunner is no easy feat, it undoubtedly requires an immense amount of desire and commitment. And perhaps a pinch of madness too... There is a saying in the sport that cites: “Ultrarunning is 90% mental, and the other 10% is in your head”. This to emphasize how important the personal involvement is, one’s own driving force and motivation, to be able to make it through the countless highs and lows that an ultra race offers. The body can only take you that far, hence when the time comes, when every muscle in the body pleads you to stop, it is only your resilience and what inspires you to push forward that can help you reach that finish line. Developing a solid training routine and following a healthy lifestyle are of course fundamental but there can be many different successful training approaches, especially if we speak in terms of different race’s technicality, length, altitude, extreme temperatures, etc... As stated before, the body can only take you up to a point so, in my opinion, if there is one common trait to success it always shines through in developing nonphysical attributes such as: Develop patience, respect and gratitude: ultra running takes time and patience! You must develop a sense of joy and gratitude towards the idea of spending an entire morning or even, an entire day, running through nature, oftentimes left alone only with your thoughts, and some dirty socks of course too! You should never rush and simply enjoy the ride! Successful ultrarunning also rises from a sense of respect and appreciation for Nature, a sort of existential awareness towards mother earth
and the deep connection we develop coming in contact with its pure simplicity. It’s a clear culture of humility, along with respect for the great outdoors. Develop mental fortitude: hence the ability to tolerate unpleasant experiences and “suffer through” inevitable periods of discomfort and fatigue during a run has much more to do with your state of mind than your physical abilities. It’s just like meditation! Only exploring our minds we discover that we are boundless and that the perception of pain is all relative. There is a Buddhists saying that fits like a glove: “Pain is inevitable but suffering is optional”. Remind yourself WHY you do what you do and nothing will stop you from achieving your goal! Develop strategic planning: A great deal of trial and error comes into play here, but with time you will understand what works for you and what does not. Once you discover and fine tune your needs all you really need is to plan ahead! Practice!! Figuring out the logistical aspects of the sport, especially fueling, hydration, and gear. To develop the skill of strategic planning for ultras, there’s no good substitute for experience. Practice makes perfect, so keep trying!! Develop a driving force: We all have different reasons of why we enter these ultra events but there is one trait that brings them all together: Motivation! One’s own inspiration is perhaps the most important aspect of this discipline.
Find that one reason you are willing to get up every day before dawn to push your limits a bit further Find that one reason that allows you to get up 80 miles into a race, when everything inside you hurts and there seem to be no strength left in you, to put one foot in front of the other and don’t stop until you achieve what you set out to do. Find that one reason that, when the going gets tough, it will pick you up and for a moment, for a quick moment only, will allow you to tap into your infinite potential, connect with your self and experience pure bliss!
