Due to inclement weather, The North Face UTMB, which began on Friday in Chamonix, was cancelled, approximately 3 hours into the race. Organizers decided to adapt the original UTMB course, creating an alternative of approximately 100 km under the name of The North Face UTMB Restart. The new race went successfully and North Face athletes Jez Bragg (UK) and Lizzy Hawker (UK) took home first place finishes. Congrats guys! You can view the incredible video recap on The North Face Facebook page.
