Tapering for the UTMB

With less than a week to go before the Ultra Trail du Mont Blanc, Anton Krupicka is "dialing it back" a bit ... an ascent of the Gouter route from the valley (up and down in six), a nice jog up gornergrat, a casual three day circumnavigation of Mont Blanc, and really a totally casual week with 32k of climbing and 16 hours of running ... pretty cushy for him as it is a 25% reduction from the standard fare. It would be great to get an American on the podium.
