🇬🇧 #154 Short Episode: WMTRC Canfranc 2025 – Gold Medalist Frédéric Tranchand

Hey everyone! Welcome to a short episode right after the Trail Running World Championships in Canfranc in the Pyrenees. What an amazing and unforgettable experience! I spent four days there with a friend – cheering, taking photos, filming, and catching up with a few athletes for short interviews. The trails, the scenery, and the performances were just incredible. I came back home feeling truly enriched and grateful for the whole experience.
In this episode, I chat with Frédéric Tranchand, recorded the day after his fantastic victory in the Short Trail race (44.5 km / 3,557 m elevation gain/loss). He shares his strategy, the mix of orienteering and sky running, and how he took the lead at the first aid station.
