The winner of UTMB speaks about his approach and why finding happiness is the main component of success.
Since its impressive UV Mont-Blanc (UTMB), Former Captain Tom Evans, has been working on a military-style crowd and sponsors’ liabilities to accommodate the liabilities of the media.
It is about 170 km / 10,000 m profits after the previously calculated and dominant performance, it is his childhood daughter, which stops him in his footsteps.
It still doesn’t know that yet, but the joys of the homeland combined with the modified thinking were transformed into 2025. “I felt that I had to win more than I wanted to win, while this year it was like.” I really wanted to do everything. “
Evans coach Scott Johnston said to him that if he wanted to win, he first had to end. It was a lesson from patience and an aspect, but one that was well used to his new family.
“Ten minutes before ITMB, I actually changed the Fobi’s nose,” says the Red Julica, which ended in the second place with more than 30 minutes. “Yes, I’m a professional, but Phoebe comes first, and he needs more than I have to use UTMB.
“I think it’s seriously accepting it, but it’s very important to take myself too much. It’s so easy to drown some seeming little thing, but at the end of the day it’s just a race. “
This year’s structure and it is obvious that the recipe for Eve was to have fun. He was happy and in Loffboro, where he was surrounded by a “amazing group” of his family and friends, and they agreed to “take everything (to the Alps).
No stone left in his YouTube Mini-Series, one of Evans’ friends refers to “Mountain Fighter Monk”. His discipline, self-control, flexibility and endurance are certainly comparable features, but his goal has changed. “It didn’t feel like a training camp,” he admits. “I thought I had to train the best in my absolute limits where I couldn’t be in another meter during the week.
“I enjoy the course, but even if you train five hours a day, you still have a lot of time to train much better.
“We have had a lot of fun to be able to be a small family and work, and we can support my wife (professional triathlet Sophie Solv.). The course was still really hard, but I never laughed out and so smile so smiling.
