John Muir Trail | A 359km Collective Adventure

Attempting to run 350km of single trail crossing the isolated the Sierra Nevada is no small feat.

Ultratrail has always been Francois' main excuse or reason to drop everything and leave on a new adventure. For this to happen, he tries to broaden his horizons with a new trail or destination every time. After completing the GR20, little were the options to top it off. Then came the idea of the John Muir Trail or JMT. The JMT presents many challenges: its distamce, the isolation and the altitude, to name only a few,make it one of the most beautiful trail in the world. Attempting to run 350km of single trail crossing the isolated and mystic mountains of the Sierra Nevada is no small feat. Do it in a single shot and that's what legends are made of.

We follow Francois during his preparation towards Western State 100, the iconic Californian 100-mile

In Western States 100 - Francois D'Haene's Journey – we follow him on his journey towards the startline in Squaw this June. After cementing his reputation as one of the best technical ultra runners ever, the iconic Californian hundred miler is a risky proposition for Francois who continuously needs to get out of his comfort zone and, in this case, up his cadence, handle the heat and go toe to toe with some of the fastest ultra athletes on the planet.
