Becs Gentry CCC Finish Caps Proud 19-Hour Triumph

Becs Gentry CCC Finish Comes After A Decade Of Waiting

Becs Gentry CCC finish came after 19 hours and three minutes on trails linking Italy, Switzerland and France, closing out a goal the Peloton Tread instructor said she had quietly held for more than a decade. Gentry crossed the finish line in Chamonix early Saturday morning, covering roughly 68 miles and 20,000 feet of climbing on the CCC course at UTMB Mont-Blanc, a race that officially runs about 108 kilometers with more than 6,200 meters of elevation gain from Courmayeur to Chamonix.

CCC, short for Courmayeur-Champex-Chamonix, serves as the 100K Final of the UTMB World Series and ranks among trail running’s most demanding single-day races. Becs Gentry CCC finish followed months of buildup The Clip Out tracked through the summer, including a win at the Napa Valley Trail Marathon, her debut at the Canyons 50K and a finish at the Speedgoat 50K in Utah. Each race added climbing and technical terrain experience, work that also showed up in the hill-focused Tread classes Gentry programmed for Peloton members throughout the buildup.

Twenty Thousand Feet Of Emotion And Alpine Climbing

Gentry described the race as a full rollercoaster of emotions in her Instagram recap, adding that she still could not quite comprehend crossing such an iconic finish line. Her body, she said, was incredibly sore and she was beyond tired, but the pride outweighed even that exhaustion. Photos from the course showed rain moving through the Alps for parts of race day, with runners in rain shells and hydration vests navigating wet pavement near aid stations along the way.

Gentry crossed under the UTMB arch early Saturday morning, where her partner Austin Curtis and the couple’s child were waiting at the finish. Friends celebrated the result from a balcony overlooking the peaks above Chamonix, popping champagne to mark an achievement Gentry had chased since first thinking about the course more than ten years earlier.

A Support Crew Built On Trust

Gentry credited a wide support network for getting her to the finish, starting with Curtis, who she said kept her strong and smiling through tears along the course. She also thanked Olivia Mascatello and Patrick for their knowledge and friendship, and Kendra Curtis for covering childcare while the group headed into the mountains. Hannah Harrick and HOKA rounded out the list, with Gentry crediting the brand for convincing her to take on the race in the first place.

That supporting cast is as much a part of the Becs Gentry CCC finish as her own training was. The gratitude echoed the community she built in Chamonix days earlier at a free shakeout run she hosted for local runners and Peloton members.

Gentry started the race in Courmayeur at 9 a.m. local time on Friday, August 28, finishing in Chamonix at roughly 4 a.m. Saturday off her 19-hour, three-minute elapsed time. Official results have her finishing 456th overall out of the full CCC field, 110th among women and 17th in her age category, with just 1 hour, 10 minutes and 55 seconds of total rest time spent at aid stations across the entire course.

Her training leaned on hill-focused work rather than mileage alone, built around single-leg strength, glutes and core stability worked into her Peloton Tread and Strength for Runners classes throughout the summer. She also leaned on trekking poles during the climbs, a tool she once felt self-conscious about before deciding it was simply what got her to the finish line.

Saturday’s result adds another milestone to a 2026 season that already included a Napa Valley win and a Speedgoat finish in Utah, and it raises the obvious question of what mountain Gentry takes on next. For now, Becs Gentry CCC finish stands as proof that a Peloton Tread instructor known for road racing can hold her own on some of the toughest alpine terrain in the sport.
