A little late, and for that I apologize, but things are a bit crazy around here right now. Let’s get into it. On June 14-16, 2024 the Trail Du Saint Jacques 2024 Results or “spirittrail” along the route of the Santiago de Compostela in France happened.

  • 100K Starters: 1,029 – DNF: 87 – Finishers: 943. Women: 80 (9%) Men: 862 (91%)

The Trail Du Saint Jacques saw 4,644 starters and 4,206 finishers. 850 (20%) women and 3,354 (80%) men reached the finish line and folks earned themselves their respective stones and an UTMB index (or directly punched their ticket to the Finals in Chamonix for 2025). This “spirit trail” along an old religious pilgrim route doesn’t attract a large number of women… coincidence?

Next up on the UTMB World Series Calendar I’ll post results for the first Mauritius by UTMB. And then we’ll get ready for one of trail running’s biggest week on the calendar. Western States and Lavaredo Ultra Trail are happening this weekend on June 26 – 30, 2024.
