Après une course sensationnelle, le Chinois Erenjia JIA remporte l’édition 2018 de l’OCC en 5h28’44. Il devient le premier chinois à inscrire son nom au palmarès de l’Ultra Trail du Mont Blanc.
Le Français Kevin VERMEULEN, très belle surprise de cette édition, monte sur la plus petite marche du podium et boucle les 56 kilomètres / 3500 mètres de dénivelé positif en 5h35’54.
L’Espagnol Santiago MEZQUITA prend la deuxième place (5h34’22). Nicolas MARTIN termine 7ème, à un peu moins de 15 minutes du premier. (+14’57)
Thibaut BARONIAN a longtemps mené la course avant de céder au 44ème kilomètre, gêné par une douleur au genou.
Côté féminin, la dernière lauréate du marathon du Mont Blanc en juin, Ruth Charlotte CROFT, remporte l’OCC 2018 devant les Espagnoles Eli GORDON RODRIGUEZ et Monica VIVES VILA.
