Chianti Ultra Trail 2026 Results

Chianti is a WSER Golden Ticket race and but not until Tenerife Blue Trail was forced to cancel due to incoming weather on the island did this year’s lineup get truly spicy. Several top athletes made the late switch after the cancelation was announced. And it paid off for two of the late elite switchers: Courtney Dauwalter took the win, and Andreas Reiterer second place. Now both can decide if they want their just won Golden Ticket. Will be fun to see if we’ll see them in California later this year.

Update on the Golden Ticket scenarios (iRunFar has the deets):

• Womens: Yngvild Kaspersen and Lauren Puretz accepted the tickets. (Courtney Dauwalter, Rachel Entrekin, and Gemma Hillier Moses declined.)
• Mens: Thomas Cardin and Vincent Bouillard accepted the tickets. (Andreas Reiterer declined due to his wife’s expecting a baby.)
