039. July 2022 - Trail running in review

July was a relatively "more relaxed" month in terms of racing, compared to the previous month. We saw most of the elite athletes putting in great training blocks towards their big goals of the season, more shifted towards the end of the summer (UTMB week, Sierre-Zinal..). Nonetheless it was very exciting to follow the trail running scene and catch up with its diverse and fun community.

With the heatwave that we are experiencing in Europe, the glaciers melting and the landscape changing, we get the change to touch a very important topic: climate change and trail running, some ways to address this problem and how get involved in climate action. Some examples?

With the pause of the Golden Trail World Series - getting ready for Stranda Fjord Trail Race and Sierre-Zinal in two consecutive weeks, we followed in particular the World Mountain Running Cup, where the kenyan athletes Joyce Njeru and Patrick Kipngeno have a clean sheet with super impressive performances at Grossglockner Berglauf, Montée du Nid d'Aigle and Giir di Mont. We also followed the UTMB World Weries at Speedgoat, Val d'Aran by UTMB and Ultra Trail of Snowdonia, the Skyrunning World Series at Skyrace Comapedrosa and Schlegeis 3000 Skyrace, and some of the most famous, iconic classic races of our sport, such as Hardrock 100m (with victories by Kilian Jornet and Courtney Dauwalter) and Mount Marathon Race (where Allie McLaughlin set a new CR!)
