🏞️ The Journey Begins Long Before the Race Does: Behind the Scenes at the One Hundred® Endurance Trail World Championship 🏞️ While the athletes gear up for the challenge of their lives, an equally dedicated team is hard at work behind the scenes, preparing the trails that will test endurance, determination and grit. The One Hundred® Endurance Trail World Championship is not just about running—it’s about creating an unforgettable experience on some of the most demanding and breathtaking trails in the world. 🔧 What Goes Into Preparing the Trails? 1. Mapping the Course: Every meter of the course is meticulously planned and mapped out to ensure it offers the right balance of challenge and safety. Our team of trail experts spends months selecting and refining routes for the 100km, 100 miles and 200 miles races. From rugged mountain paths to winding forest trails, every section must meet the high standards of the World Championship. 2. Safety First: Before the race begins, safety teams perform thorough inspections to assess potential hazards. This involves everything from evaluating weather conditions to ensuring the terrain is properly marked for participants. We partner with local authorities and trail experts to safeguard athletes as they push their limits. 3. Trail Maintenance and Preservation: We’re committed to leaving no trace. While preparing the trail, we carefully maintain and preserve the natural beauty of the environment. This includes efforts to minimize environmental impact, protect local wildlife and ensure sustainable use of the trails. 4. Strategic Aid Stations: Along the course, strategic aid stations are placed to provide hydration, nutrition and medical assistance. Setting up these stations is a massive logistical effort, involving volunteers and support teams who will be ready to assist runners in the toughest stretches of the race. 5. Weather Adaptability: Trail conditions can change dramatically due to weather. Our team is always prepared to adapt and adjust, whether it’s reinforcing trail markers or rerouting parts of the race for safety reasons. 🌟 Crafting a World-Class Experience Our goal is to ensure that when the runners hit the trails, they are fully immersed in both the physical challenge and the beauty of the environment. From the highest mountain peaks to the deep forest trails, every detail has been considered to create an unforgettable race. The preparation is a race of its own!

As you push through each mile on the trail, remember what truly defines happiness. It’s not about the pace or the finish line. It’s about the journey, the discovery and listening to your heart as it beats in rhythm with your steps. “Happiness was always about the discovery, the hope, the listening to your heart and following it wherever it chose to go... It was always about you.” – Bianca Sparacino, The Strength In Our Scars Embrace each step, each breath, each moment on the trail. #TrailRunning #EnduranceTrail #FindYourHappiness #OneHundredChampionship Joao de Saldanha João Andrade Jeremy Woodgate Tiago Aragão Miguel Crespo Rodrigo Cerqueira Roger Daglius Dias ROBSON JAQUES VERLY Ronald Homsy Frédéric Frère
