The race uses the same course for the half, full and a 28 mile Ultra Marathon. I&#8217;d <a href=\"https:\/\/ourtour.co.uk\/home\/race-report-2018-zermatt-gornergrat-half-marathon-switzerland\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">run the half marathon part of the course with my mate Phil<\/a> the previous month. Feeling fit (I lost two stones to do that run), I knew I needed a challenge so inked the form in blood, and let the world know I was doing the Ultra so there was no backing out! Shortly afterwards, Ju had a&nbsp; bout of insanity too, and signed up for the half marathon taking place on the same day.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Zermatt-Profile.jpg\" alt=\"The Zermatt-Gornergrat Uphill Marathon Course Profile\" class=\"wp-image-28860\" width=\"917\" height=\"491\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Zermatt-Profile.jpg 773w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Zermatt-Profile-300x161.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Zermatt-Profile-768x411.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 917px) 100vw, 917px\" \/><figcaption>The Zermatt-Gornergrat Uphill Marathon Course Profile.
