Thibault Delacroix is an ultra-distance runner. He grew up in France but has made Australia his home the last few years and he's happy to say he is now an Australian permanent resident. Thibault's running journey began during his first few years living in Australia. It was the beginning of 2018 and he made the decision to give up smoking, this led him to start running as a distraction and he hasn't looked back! Over the last few years he has completed many races from marathons to a 100 kilometer ultramarathon, to 100 mile ultramarathons, and his desire to keep pushing limits continues. This year he had an ambitious goal of going for the title of Triple Crown Under Grand Master. The Triple Crown Under Grand Master consists of completing 3x 200 mile races within a calendar year. For Australia, the races are:• The Delirious WEST 200 miler February 2024,• The Irrational SOUTH 200 miler April 2024,• The Unreasonable EAST 200 miler August 2024. Thibault is proud to say that he completed the goal and even managed to reach the podium in each of the three races which was a big bonus! Thibault's next project will be creating a documentary about his running journey over this challenge and he will hire a videographer who can help put it all together. Thibaut has a Go Fund ME where any funds received will go towards paying the videographer.

I had such an amazing conversation with Cody today. He set the Bruce Trail Unsupported FKT just a few short weeks ago, in 14 days and 30 minutes. Cody shared some great stories and some very useful info on unsupported hiking/ultrarunning in the multi-day fashion. He's such an amazing human.

RTR had the absolute pleasure of connecting with such a truly amazing and world class ultramarathoner, and even better human being, Viktoria Brown.
