A Global Trail Race Series Calendar

Over the holidays I had some time, or rather some muse and inspiration, and I abused the spreadsheet software again for my layout purposes. I created and uploaded the Electric Cable Car Global Race Series Calendar. After my successful experiment with the UTMB World Series Calendar I wanted to add a few more events. And rather than focusing on individual events which would’ve broken my brain, and spreadsheet, and quickly turned into 1,000s of entries, I decided to only focus on global trail races series. Why? Well, the most obvious reason and the one that inspired it all is that the series’ websites are often heavy on the marketing but lack severely a good way of viewing all races easily at a glance. That’s why the UTMB calendar exists on here. So I when the World Trail Majors were announced I added the WTM calendar and after more and more athletes were wondering out loud what races to compete in this coming year I thought it lend them a hand and create an easily to digest guide that’s viewable in Google sheets. For shorter distance events I added the Skyrunner World Series, the Golden Trail World Series and the Valsir Mountain Running World Cup and for folks who want to go really long I added TORX Experience. For now, that is a good start. If there other series you want to see included, please reach out and let me know. The full calendar is color coded to allow you to quickly see which races belong to which series. It also provides an easy way to see which weekend will be busy with lots of racing happening all over the world, great to follow traveling elites from afar. Hope you’ll have fun with it and it provides itself useful. Happy New Year!
