It is time. In October you can stream TRFF'26 - from the comfort of our couch, with friends, and popcorn. Ten films, hours of inspiration.  

Arc of Attrition 2025 Results

15 February 2025

Arc of Attrition by UTMB was held for the first time as a UTMB event a couple of weeks ago on January 24-26. I have been tardy (and massively busy), missed several UTMB race results, but this week during our Trail Talk Media Pass session I was reminded that these posts are really useful. So, my aim is to keep again, and post them for the year. Find all UTMB coverage on my dedicated UTMB page here.

For full results visit the UTMB website, below the top runners by race:
