The course started with a roughly 2,500 foot climb, straight up the Yakima Canyon. I mean this thing was brutal. Basically an hour climbing an incline steeper than stairs. And the stairs were the side of a mountain. This course would not pass building code.

After you got to the top, the trail took a long, steep descent all the way back down to the river you just climbed away from. That was where they put the first aid station, and after that there was another basically 2,500 foot climb, and another spirit-killing descent back down to the river. Then, to get to the finish line, you did that whole course in reverse. 5,000 more feet of climbing in the other direction.

So a few weeks ago I was talking with Robbie, our composer and sound designer here on the show, and we got to wondering how fast would that guy be compared to other professionals? Did he have any business running UTMB?

Like if your wingspan is greater than your height, and you have a low center of gravity, and a ridiculous metabolism? People are going to gape at what you can do in the climbing gym. Maybe put you on the cover of magazines, or in films with really awesome sound tracks.

Tyler: And the climbs are very steep. Like, I don't think they utilize switchbacks quite in the same way that we utilize switchbacks. And yeah, it just makes it makes for a really challenging course, especially for Americans.

Tyler: Just, it just feels huge. I mean, there's people lining the trails and lining the roads for almost 20 straight miles. Tons of people like where it feels like a tour de France stage, like a, like a climbing stage wherever, where people are on each side of you, like cheering as loudly as they can.

Robbie: Crack the top ten at UTMB, and a runner can break through to sponsors, media, maybe even the public at large. Tyler had been focusing on this race all year. And he needed it to go well. Better than last year, at least.

Tyler: The year before I had a really terrible race and had to stop, I don't know, 20 miles from the finish, and take a nap and just. I finished the race, but it wasn't like up to my competitive standards.

Robbie: Tyler grew up running cross country in school, and exploring the mountains with his father. He was a natural runner, and while he swore off racing after his first miserable experience with a marathon, he loved trails. And that eventually brought him to the McKenzie river 50 miler in Oregon. Where, he said, he made the mistakes almost everyone makes.

Tyler: I carried like, uh, gosh, maybe like a four ounce flask of water with me without electrolytes, something. I mean, it was just this absolutely tiny water bottle and I was using that, um, as my main fuel source and maybe ate a couple of gels as well, but didn't understand the, the feeling aspect of ultra running as well. So ran pretty, ran pretty hard for a while, felt like I was running within myself and then it all came crashing down very quickly.

Tyler: Um, I still ended up second. And so, you know, it felt like, Oh, maybe this is something that, you know, that, that I have, uh, have some future in. And then all of a sudden I was like fully into ultra running.

Tyler: We kind of dated and then, and then didn't date and became friends and training partners, and then all of a sudden, uh, then, then all of a sudden things happened very quickly. And we were basically talking about getting married and stuff.

Tyler: She was like going to a lot of different races and beating a lot of people that had been on the global stage for a while. Like just smaller races, but there's someone there who's, um, Who's really shown themselves to be really good. And she goes out and beats them like, who is this person?

Robbie: Eventually they both secured a Nike sponsorship, and Tyler earned a much coveted ticket to compete at Western States, the most prestigious and oldest 100 miler in the US. He came in 14th. It was a solid finish, but it left him hungry for more.

Tyler: I just set on this path to be a student of the sport and to, um, give myself opportunities to learn how to do it, because by the time I raced Western States, it was like four or five years already into the sport and felt like, Oh, I'm, I'm pretty good at this. But I don't quite know how to get to this next level yet, and I'm just gonna see what I can do and learn how to, how to get there.

Robbie: Tyler ran the 2022 UTMB barely a month before Rachel's due date. And while he no longer had to spend time wrangling little kids in the classroom, there was an even littler kid, forcing even bigger changes, even before he was born.

Tyler: I felt a lot of sadness as I started to not be able to run quite what she was capable of because she was pregnant and, and just seeing like, okay, this is, this is a change in how our relationship will be from here on out. And as I'm saying all of this, I'm like, I'm the one talking from a more privileged position here where I was able to continue my running. So I think that like her experience was much more difficult than the road that I had to, had to travel.

Tyler: We knew that we wanted to be parents, and there's a point where, you know, there are all these different races that I'd be disappointed not to run. But, I think the greater disappointment, the greater miss would be not having a kid and having the experience of, of being parents if it's possible for us.

Tyler: I have a responsibility to provide for my family is one, is one part of that. I also have an opportunity through running to learn more about myself and my ability to do hard things. And what it means to go after something. And live with like passion for something. I think that those are all things that, that running is going to provide for me that that I'm hopefully able to impart on Lewis.

Tyler: Having a baby, it's just, you know, you can't, it's not like we're going to go out and travel quite as far as we used to. And, we're not going to go on as big of adventure runs as we, as we once did, like it has to be a little more efficient. And that means like, for me, I'm usually running out my front door and, you know, we have a good collection of trails and parks and stuff nearby. Um, but you know, it's, it is a bummer to, to miss out on.

Robbie: It just wasn't the year of freedom and focus on running that Tyler had dreamed of. Instead, he'd traded pristine alpine runs for bleary eyed bottle feedings, given up meandering trailside chats with the love of his life and replaced them with logistical conversations between diaper changes. And then Rachel developed stress fractures as she tried to return to training.

But they had each other, and Lewis, and as they looked at the path they were on, with Rachel about to start her medical residency, they realized that, despite the challenges, if they were going to go for it as runners, this was the year. Rachel wanted to race OCC, the 50k distance at Mont Blanc, and Tyler had his eyes set once again on UTMB. 106.5 miles. The races were just days apart.

So Rachel took a leave of absence, and with two months free of any other obligations besides training and taking care of Lewis, the family flew to Europe and set up a base camp near Chamonix, where UTMB would take place.

Tyler: Rachel and I really just fell into a good little routine where, um, I mean, we actually kind of incorporated part of our like family time into training or training into our family time where every morning we would load him onto our Osprey Poco, um, the little like kids backpack. I throw him on my back and we do like a hike and we kind of just had our, we had our two or three different routes that we would take straight from home. Um, maybe pop into like a, a little patisserie afterwards or hop into the grocery store to grab whatever we needed. But it was also pretty good training, right? Like, I mean, it's low intensity training, but both of us were able to hike up steep stuff. I put the extra weight on me just as a weight of getting some real functional strength for climbing that could be applied well for UTMB training.

Robbie: In a way, it allowed them to wind back the clock, and return to a time when running together in beautiful new places had been the ultimate expression of their relationship. Only now, it was better.

Robbie: Rachel raced first, at OCC. For her, at least, the time in Europe had done its job. Being with her family, away from the stresses of medical school, had helped bring her back to something of the form she remembered. She took sixth place.

Tyler: She just had a really great, really great performance where I think she was still wondering, she was wondering if she still had it, you know, if, if after pregnancy, like where her, where her body would be and where she would be athletically.

Tyler: Um, you know, you, when, when the race starts at 6 PM, it means you haven't, you already haven't slept all day, like, and then you're going, and then you're going to stay up all night, you know, and then you're going to run all day the next day too.

Robbie: Tyler started well, running through the cheering crowds, into the silence of the night. He ran fast, but stayed within himself while keeping pace inside the top 20, anticipating how good it would feel for the first morning light to hit his face.
