In order to give fair recognition to high level athletes and to ensure a fair management of entry applications, we reserve places for elite athletes according to their Performance Index in the category of the race they chose to compete. Elite runners must register during the registration period. No registration will be accepted after the deadline. If the distance is lottery based, the elite runners must register at the same time as other athletes. Once a distance is sold out, the event organiser has the right to refuse an elite registration. All elites must register to a race at least 60 days before the race.
See the requirements to qualify as an elite athlete here: https://utmb.world/runners/elites (Elite Runner Registration Benefit)
- Race Bib
- Access to aid stations
- Transport of the spare bags (depending on the distance)
- Medical assistance
- Participant Gift
- After race services
