South African's Trail to Chamonix
As part of the UTMB World Series, MUT by UTMB connects the South Africa trail running community to a global movement. It’s where runners from South Africa and beyond come together, share the trail, and take part in a journey that leads to the UTMB World Series Finals in Chamonix.
