About This Race
The 109K represents the ultimate challenge at Nice Côte d'Azur by UTMB, demanding both mountain endurance and tactical pacing as runners navigate the complete spectrum of Mediterranean terrain over a demanding distance that tests seasoned ultra runners. This distance requires experience with technical descents and extended time on feet, as the extended course amplifies every challenge of the coastal mountain environment - from sustained climbs in the foothills to precise navigation on technical sections. Best suited for runners with multiple ultra finishes, the 109K offers a stepping stone toward longer UTMB World Series events while delivering a comprehensive tour of the region's most demanding terrain.
