yes i'm
full of emotions
i have been doing me for this one for so
long
20 is a crazy year
my focus this year was so many ultra
races and i don't have any races
so during the quarantine i was thinking
i want a physical challenge
and also a mental spiritual challenge
for me
for me there is some epic mountains in
the alps
grand paradiso mater horn was these two
mountains that i chose
to do the project two
very classic and epic mountains in the
alps that i'd like to climb and run
in one push
grandpa jesus for me the focus is in my
performance in solo
everyone is out of ropes in that very
technical terrain
and mate horn is the opportunity to face
a best emotional challenge
when you go to grand paradiso people do
in two days or more
and matejon is the same two three days
to do this climb
to do two big mountains in just one push
you need to be a good athlete very fit
and you need to be alert so i think you
need to have so much courage
and it's not for everybody
[Music]
i'm ultra runner i know that
i can push myself for long time
and for high mountains
and i want to see that if i was possible
i respect so much the mountain but in
the same time
i want to face my limits
and i want to face my fears
ok so now it's 7
30 in the morning
is a mountain that i did once before
my time was 3 hours 20 minutes to go up
today i hope to take less than three
hours to go up
less than five hours to do the up and
down
as a runner it's super special for me to
improve
alpine techniques
[Music]
i use crampons i use the trekking pole
no gloves no purely i go in the lightest
way that i can
i know that solo i can be slow in some
parts because i have
respect the mountain but the same time
i can go faster when i have confidence
to try
to beat myself
i love the glaciers i love to run the
glacier
it's cool to see how the technique works
no
how you need to put your feet to go fast
on the ice
then you find two letters that one is go
up and once
for people go down
you see a whole time like the big rivals
down from you and you cannot slippery
there
that is crazy
the runner is the sport that i can
express
myself i love to move
sorry sorry
mountains inspired me to give my best to
fight against
the pain in my legs
to fight the bad sauce that sometimes
came
in my mind and in my body
i was super happy i didn't have fears i
was just
enjoying
what time do you have on your watch is
that two
but i couldn't stop much i just hugged
madonna
my hands and my mouth was completely
frozen from the cold wind
okay
[Music]
[Applause]
sorry
oh my gosh this down here is just crazy
it's super hard to run but i push the
maximum i run
i was running a trainer but there i had
to put my crampons otherwise it's very
dangerous i can kill myself if i sleep
there
sorry guys please thank you
come on i was so excited that i got lost
in the glacier
i don't know where i should go
i got lost i didn't know what is that
situation then i come back
but i could maintain the rhythm
when you turn on your animal instinct
you are so focused that you do your
[Music]
i best flying down i was so focused to
finish
and suddenly i was again in the park of
grandpa diesel
exhausted
oh my god
it's so tough
four hours three minutes by the
traditional route
it was a super cool experience
oh my god why i like to go
to do these things
yeah it's incredible for me it was super
fast and i'm super happy
with all this challenge that i had and
it was a great result for me
i did my best it's a beautiful mountain
they inspire me so much
after the mountain i need to go to the
river
to recover the lake because now i
go to matajorn
[Music]
now i go to matehorn
i've been trying to to climb this
mountain so many times because i had
some
emotional problems in the past with this
mountain
i never had the opportunity
last week before start the project
i tried to climb to see if i was able
and i couldn't i could
reach almost depicting now
and when i was there i was blogging
completely full of fears i start to cry
after that i want to cancel the project
because i i was so
scared about this mountain so this
month for me it's a big challenge
[Music]
it's a warm night
and i'm feeling good
i slept two three hours after gran
paradiso
is a mix of sensations this
amazing sky full of stars
just inspire me it's a
hard climb very exposed
very technical
i need to use my arms
a lot what
usually i don't do much
because i'm a runner
i try my best
to be safe and fast
on this kind of terrain
i came here in 2015.
i started to run from zermatt to polling
hot
but the flocks of snow they start like
to froze in my eyes and that was the
scariest experience of my life
my eyes suddenly started to burn
i spent three days in this hospital i
couldn't open my eyes i was just praying
for god to
not be blind and
then gonzalo he's my friend and he's
argentina alpinist
and you share the same house in shamuni
he went to matahorn
to climb with his client he had a big
ascendant
a big rockfall killed him and
also his client
i was completely in shock and i couldn't
climb
last year that story was so much
affected myself because he was super
close friend
and then i started to realize how
dangerous this material mountain
is very dangerous
[Music]
i'm arriving big tindal and
i didn't feel that big fear
yes i was happy there
today i have my footage
i'm feeling better to face them
are the best
i didn't see the ice on the terrain
the rock was dry there and i said wow
this is a good sign
i can do that i can try to go forward
matejon is four thousand four hundred
seventy eight meters high
with super technicoterrain
i'm endurance athlete so i try the
longest way
the most challenging way to the top
you are exposed of time and you have to
have
a strong arm because it's your life
there
so you cannot look down i never looked
down because you scaring myself
i had to face so many times my fears
because it's so dangerous
this time i was like okay i just need to
be focusing step by step
and let's see how much i can go
but i want to face it
each time i was seeing that i was just
getting close i closed the clothes
and said wow i think i make that i think
it can be possible for my mind
oh my gosh
i can't believe it now
you cry
the way up there is so hard
it's so challenging that when i saw the
summit
i was like wow no it's easy
i can just give you like five steps
in army there in the summit of matahorn
and he said oh now is my moment
[Music]
it's something spiritual you know like
it is very special
uh
yes i'm full of emotions
i've been drinking for this one for so
long
and since your size of mine i've been
here
and i couldn't climb in each year was
something was happening that i couldn't
come
for me to improve as a person i need to
be
out of my comfortable zone and
so mate horn in grandparents
mean that for me i'm super happy
so crazy i'm super happy
so beautiful
[Music]
