The feat for the Souletin. Beñat Marmissolle wins the Diagonale des Fous, the legendary ultra-trail race on Reunion Island. Already third for his first participation last year, he achieves the performance of crossing the line in 23h14. The ultra trail runner from Tardets-Sorholus
thus beats its stopwatch from last year, by half an hour.
La Diagonale des Fous is one of the most difficult events in the world, with its 160 km distance and 9,400 m of elevation gain.
