The Skyrunner World Series is back in the USA!
Join us at Beast of Big Creek and race Mount Ellinor with us.
As we’re awaiting the start of the Canyons Endurance Runs by UTMB, which I will cover here on Electric Cable Car on my live ticker page, I thought I take a moment to share the total numbers of runners who’ve started each race over the last few years. (As far back as UTMB Live lists)
| STARTERS | 2023 | 2024 | 20252 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 100M | 278 | 291 | 235 |
| 100K1 | 537 | 586 | 667 |
| 50K | 469 | 642 | 616 |
| 25K | 407 | 468 | 325 |
| Total Starters: | 1,691 | 1,987 | 1,843 |
So, while Canyons lost the Major status after the 2024 race the numbers didn’t drop as dramatically as one might think. It’ll be interesting to see how these numbers will compare to this year. I’ll report after the event.
