First (and biggest) run of the holidays, 1281m of ascent. Up to Plan de l'Aiguille, along the Grande Balcony Nord to Montenvers, and back to the campsite. #trailrunning

Going through a box of old slides I found this view of the Mer de Glace taken from the terrace at Montenvers on a family holiday in August 1976. I'm the teenager by the railing carrying a small backpack. I had no idea of the amount of change that would take place here in my lifetime.

More running! This time a classic route: Montenvers, Grand Balcon Nord & Plan de l’Aiguille. Nice day, some sun but not too hot.
I’m prepping for my recce of the TDS route which starts Saturday & involve 3 back-to-back days of 50km / 3,000m vert 😬
The race itself is in 36 days

Last year I posted this comparison between a photo I took during the same 1976 visit to Montenvers and one taken 3 years ago that someone else had posted on reddit. The one I just found though provides an additional perspective and sense of scale.

On the first World Day for Glaciers here is a photo of the Mer de Glace from Montenvers, near Chamonix, that I took on my first visit there in 1976, and another showing the glacier in 2023 posted recently by Reddit user deetredd.

Recce of the final section of MdMB 90 today; CHX - Buvette Mottets - Montenvers - Signal - Plan de l’Aiguille - CHX. Lots of snow, a bit sketchy in parts
Phone got waterlogged on Wednesday’s run & camera only works on selfie mode now 😂
6 days until my 2-day CCC / UTMB recce 😍 (115km / 6,000m d+)
