I tried the run in the early morning and thought about the UTMB runners while I pushed myself through the last tough kilometer 😊
the very last section was closed due to a rock avalanche so I had to look at the map and spontaneously take another way. I documented my detour in the pictures and hope it is acceptable for this FKT. Not sure if they will reopen the original route someday.
also I realized the new slightly changed route has a Strava segment that looks similar- but not sure if the others on the segment also did it unsupported. I leave it to the FKT editors to decide if my attempt will count.

Note by the editor
After considering that:
1. That section of the trail was clearly closed.
2. That section is minor as compared to the whole route.
3. The total ascent remains the same.
The FKT by Carina has been accepted.
