About This Race
The 75K distance offers runners a substantial step up from the 55K while remaining more accessible than the ultra-long 110K and 163K options, making it an ideal proving ground for runners testing their endurance limits in technical Pyrenean terrain. This mid-range distance demands serious mountain running fitness and pacing discipline, as runners must sustain effort across significant elevation gain while managing the technical descents that characterize the Val d'Aran region. The 75K attracts both experienced ultrarunners seeking a challenging but manageable distance and ambitious trail runners ready to push beyond marathon-length efforts into true mountain ultra territory.
