Rodrigue’s impressive victory in the UTMB Major Doi Inthanon race in Chiang Mai, Thailand, is a testament to his dedication and hard work in trail racing. The 10km race, considered one of the most competitive in the world, featured a field of over 500 competitors, mostly adults. Despite being the third favorite based on his previous results, Rodrigue demonstrated exceptional performance, finishing first overall in just 46 minutes and 15 seconds, more than two minutes ahead of the second place finisher. This remarkable achievement solidifies his position as a top contender in the UTMB Majors, and we are excited to see what the future holds for him.
