108 Mile Race That Almost Broke Me (UTMB Mont Blanc)
Kara and Nate
@karaandnateAbout
Hey, y'all! We are a husband and wife from Nashville, Tennessee. We started our YouTube channel on a whim when we decided to take a year off and go travel back in 2016. One year quickly turned into 4, and at the very end of 2019 we stepped foot in our 100th country. If you want a quick summary of that journey you can watch the documentary here - https://bit.ly/41TbOKJ Shortly after achieving our 100 country goal, the pandemic hit. With international travel no longer an option, we bought a van and spent 2 years traveling around the U.S. living in our tiny home on wheels. At the beginning of 2022, we moved out of the van and back into our suitcases full-time. We're not exactly sure what our next "goal" is going to be, but we're currently having fun bouncing around the globe chasing our passions & interesting stories.

We discovered the world of “travel hacking” while planning our honeymoon & became addicted ;) So after 2 years of obsessively saving $35k and over 2 million miles and points, we sold our cars and apartment and left home January 10, 2016 for a “one year” trip around the world. Our goal was to see as many places as possible before we ran out of money and went back home to “normal life.” We started this channel to share our experiences with friends and family, but quickly fell in love with living on the road and found a new passion for capturing our travels through video. So we did everything we could to keep going. 4 years later, we achieved our new goal of visiting 100 countries and all 7 continents. We had no plans to slow down, until 2020 forced us to ;) Which is when we bought a converted van to start exploring our own country for the first time! After ~2 years of van life, we are back to full time international traveling! And now we are in our 10TH YEAR of finding the best adventures the world has to offer :) We are incredibly grateful to be able to continue doing something we love every day. 😊🎥🌎 Thank you to everyone who has been a part of our journey! 0:00 What is UTMB? 3:30 Starting line 6:11 mile 1 the rain begins… 11:09 14 miles in St. Gervais 13:19 mile 20 Les Cantamines aid station 17:02 worst night of nate’s life 26:30 52 miles in Courmayeur 32:06 first place finishers 33:10 Kara’s crew bag 35:30 we’re struggling 40:12 24 hours of running 41:42 mile 81 Champex-Lac 44:58 hallucinating 47:34 mile 90 Trient 52:14 mile 99 Vallorcine 55:00 more hallucinations 56:52 finish line!! 101:50 what’s next?
