Feedback

Richard Umberg

Trainer Everyone should take part at least once in the Aletsch Half-Marathon... and the magnificent and unparalleled views of the scenery around you are the most motivating factor you could wish for in a run. If you accept the challenge, you will literally whiz round the route.
