This short but brutal dash up the Face de Bellevarde is one of the many stages in the ever-growing Skyrunner World Series.
Participants will attempt to run a kilometre up the steep slope of the Face de Bellevarde (scene of the 1992 Olympic downhill), covering a ground distance of 3000m in the process.
This gruelling competition is definitely not for the faint hearted - winners in previous years have completed the event in an amazing 35 minutes!
The race is open to all those who are brave enough - you can register at Val d'Isere Club des Sports.
