One of Colorado's classic alpine traverses, the Blanca–Little Bear Traverse links two fourteeners through an exposed ridge, scrambling and incredible scenery in the Sangre de Cristo Range.

A few performances that stayed with me this spring and summer: Western States, Emelie’s return, Xavier Thévenard, Hardrock, new lines in Pakistan, young riders, Alberto Ginés, Sam Laidlow, Sabastian Sawe...

A few days before Western States 26, I had a very interesting chat with Molly Seidel about her journey from Olympic marathon to the trails and ultra-races.

[kilian jornet @kilianj]

I sat down with Hans Troyer ahead of Western States.

A conversation about ambition, patience, curiosity, and the beauty of running through the mountains.

Neither of us finished the race that Saturday. But this conversation was a good one.

@KrisAnnapurna 💔💔

[kilian jornet @kilianj]

Public lands are not safe by default. I wrote about what it actually means to protect them, and why it matters beyond running.

Next weekend at Western States, the cap says the rest.

@zbitter @Cdenejnjendjen That’s what I try to do. Problem is that in social media we often like to over simplify and therefore fall into black or white opinions when reality is complex and nuanced. Study the demands, understand the context and then build the nutrition strategy is kind of my way to go

[kilian jornet @kilianj]

@KrisAnnapurna Probably Jean Troillet snowboard descent in 97 ( from 8700m) at Hornbein is the closest one

[kilian jornet @kilianj]

After Zegama, I needed to understand what my body had been trying to say for weeks.

I wrote about the MRI, an old knee injury, and why I’m trying to see this moment as a new challenge: to recover, adapt, and keep learning from the body.

[kilian jornet @kilianj]

I wrote something about Zegama: the text message that brought me back, the village that built the race, the wall of sound at Sancti Spiritu, and what it feels like to return to a place that has been part of my life for many years.

@Angelab8848 La dificultad de un ascenso sin oxígeno es por un lado fisiológico y por otro lado, e igual de importante, de exposición. El hecho de tener acceso al oxígeno, aunque no se use, la elimina. En mi opinión si hay oxigeno en la expedición no se puede hablar de puramente sin oxígeno.

Zegama-Aizkorri 2026 is underway!

Josep Manuel Anglada era molt més que un alpinista brillant, era un home culte, un gran viatger, bon conversador, afable..., deia que amb il.lusió es mouen muntanyes. EPD https://t.co/5w7ErlYWwK

Mind blowing race at London marathon! Sawe and Kejelcha under 2h ���🔥

My 2026 season. 3 races…or did I say everything? 👀 Full YouTube video has a little clue at the end: https://t.co/xcRfgIUAoK

[kilian jornet @kilianj]

Western States, Sierre-Zinal, UTMB. Three races that mean a lot to me, and a full season built around more than just competition.

In 2026, I’ll race @UTMBMontBlanc for a seventh time.

UTMB is one of the few ultras in the world where the depth of the field pushes you to a different level, and I'm excited to be back.

See you in August in Chamonix!
