Mike McKnight | Tor des Géants 2026 | Pre-Race Interview

Mike McKnight, a couple of days out from his first Tor des Géants. He covers how a head wound at the Tahoe 200 and one cheeky email to the organisers got him a late entry, swapping the smooth Utah canyon trails for the steep scree he used to avoid, and doubling his weekly vert to around 23,000 feet. Mike also explains why he's planning on not sleeping, talks through the crewing rules that caught him out coming from the US 200 scene, and sets out his A, B and C goals, from a sub 80 hour finish to just banking his Hardrock qualifier.
