Just as Doi was arriving at VALLORCINE, Jason Shrub, the only American supported by Milestone and an Altra ambassador, got word that he was about to reach the finish line.

Get ahead of the goal

The final sprint is fast

It's also difficult to photograph.

He placed an impressive 19th overall, the first among Americans.

His family was waiting for him at the finish line and was able to witness the moving scene.

Congratulations Jason, and thanks for using the Trailmaster.

From here, we waited for Doi at the finish line.
