Chiang Mai, Thailand — HOKA Chiang Mai Thailand by UTMB®, the largest trail running event in the region, has officially announced the opening of registrations for the 2026 edition. The event will continue its role as an Asia Pacific Major race within the global UTMB® World Series, welcoming runners from around the world to create new memories and push their limits amidst the stunning natural landscapes of Chiang Mai.
For trail runners around the world, few races carry the prestige and challenge of UTMB Mont Blanc.
Widely regarded as one of the most iconic ultramarathons on the planet, the event attracts elite athletes and everyday runners alike, all seeking to test themselves against one of the toughest endurance challenges in sport.
But what exactly makes UTMB so difficult?
There are few training sessions that deliver as much value to trail runners as hill repeats. They build climbing strength, improve endurance, sharpen descending skills, and develop the mental resilience needed to tackle challenging trails and mountain races.
Race week is here, and whether you’re lining up for the ultra or the half, one thing can make or break your day: your nutrition plan.
At Everyday Athlete, we don’t just stock products we test them, trust them, and race with them. Here’s our go-to nutrition guide to help you feel strong from start line to finish.
If racing through ancient mountain trails, misty jungles, and hill tribe villages in northern Thailand has been on your bucket list, now’s your chance! Entries for the Chiang Mai by UTMB® 2025 are now officially open for runners with a UTMB Index — and general entries open this Sunday, 22 June.
