David Laney finished third in the 2015 UTMB with a time of 21:59:42. The race is around 170 km and 10,000 m of positive altitude change. Just think, that’s like doing four loops of the Big Day!

After over 100 miles, David finished just two minutes behind second place. Amazing considering this was only David’s third attempt at a distance this far.
