| Saturday, January 23 2021 - THAILAND TO HOST FIRST-EVER JOINT WORLD MOUNTAIN & TRAIL RUNNING CHAMPIONSHIPS IN 2021 |
Big changes are coming to mountain running in 2021.
Chiang Mai, Thailand will host the inaugural World Mountain & Trail Running Championships on 11-14 November 2021.
The event will feature 40KM and 80KM trail races, classic mountain races for Seniors and Juniors, and a vertical uphill race.
It replaces World Championships previously hosted by the WMRA (mountain running) and the IAU/ITRA (trail).
We will be announcing the selection criteria for the World Championships and details of this year's national championships shortly. Check back soon!
Note that this year the Canadian Mountain Running Association will be selecting competitors for the classic mountain races, and the vertical uphill race. Selection for the 40km and 80km trail races is likely to be selected at events sanctioned by the Association of Canadian Ultrarunners, although this will be confirmed shortly.
More details to come! |
