Description
With only a few days to go until the Mont Blanc Ultra Trail race, French pensioner Patrick Martin, at 74 the oldest participant, is busy training. The super marathon is 170 kilometres long with an elevation gain of 10,000 metres and can take even skilled runners 40 hours to complete. For fellow racer Charles de Monaghan, the race is an opportunity "to take stock of yourself". IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
