“I chose the races I was the most excited to do. I was really excited about the whole season and all of the races I did fulfilled my wildest expectations.”
Hillary Gerardi
With a strong international field pushing the pace and racing for the Sky Extra title, records were smashed, slicing an incredible three hours off the men’s and two hours off the women’s times. In her first skyrunning season and with her win here, American Brittany Peterson, took third in the final ranking. Aurell consolidated his season with the win and title.
