UTMB qualifying races in Nepal

If you are hunting for UTMB points, there are some available in Nepal. The system of grading and awarding points has changed dramatically over the past year with the International Trail Running Association (ITRA) (of which we are a member) taking on the role of certifying races.

This certification process has left a lot of people behind either because they were not aware of the change, or were confused by the process, or were not able to get a response from the ITRA who must be completely swamped with the the number of races requiring their assistance.

So, at this end we’re working on making sure the one-day races we organise are properly certified and will try to list other races that we know offer ITRA or UTMB points.

Please do double check all information to avoid disappointment!

• Check the UTMB qualifying list page.
• Check the ITRA website for the effort points they have awarded to races.
• Contact the race organiser before entering.
