In this seventh episode, Dani Moreno, the American runner who switched tracks for trails around the world, meets Benjamin Raffort, a former ski jumper who found a new connection to the mountains through running. Just before the 2023 Dacia UTMB Mont-Blanc week, they spoke about how sport has changed their life for better and worse, how they changed their mindset around it and, of course, about how running is faster than walking. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬       Crossed Paths is a UTMB World Series podcast. Each month two athletes, one elite and one amateur, meet and discuss what trail running means to them. In this conversation, they’ll also reveal what drives them in life, and how they express it on the hills. They share their common passions, interests, beliefs and get to know each other along the way. And so will we. We hope you’ll enjoy this privileged moment where… they crossed paths.  You can find out more about UTMB World series on https://utmb.world/ or https://linktr.ee/utmbworldseries ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Three easy ways to support us ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬    1.
