Yo Saturnalia!
Get ready for a fun and festive holiday 10K trail race at Squaxin Park in Olympia, WA on December 13.

The race in front of one of the most epic mountain panoramas, the Eiger Ultra Trail by UTMB is happening a couple of weekend ago amidst thunderstorms and lighting. Several routes were held on alternate and shortened courses. This year the storms in the Alps are no joke. Usually in my results posting I am sharing only the individual races, but this event has two couples/teams events that both award stones, so I decided to add them to the results list. All this and more are the reason why these results are late, sorry about that.

Find all UTMB coverage on my dedicated UTMB page here.

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

  • E101 Starters: 662. DNF: 42 + Finishers: 620. Women 104 (17%), Men 516 (83%).
  • E51 Starters: 896. DNF: 52 + Finishers: 844. Women 236 (28%), Men 608 (72%).

  • Trail Surprise Starters: 210. DNF: 3 + Finishers: 207. Women 113 (55%), Men 93 (4845).

Okay, there’s a lot going on, and the 101 shortened results I didn’t even include here, since there were only 7 men finishers. Feels very Swiss. Accurate into the final detail, and convoluted like a complicated mechanical watch. – Alright, dumb stereotype aside, not counting the teams:

Eiger Ultra Trail by UTMB saw a total 3,453 starters and 3,305 finishers. 1,183 (36%) women and 2,121 (64%) men reached the finish line and earned themselves their respective stones and an UTMB index (or directly punched their ticket to the Finals in Chamonix for 2026).

Next up on the official World Series calendar were the Speedgoat Mountain Races in Utah, USA on 24-26 July, 2025. But since I’m late I am just telling you to check out my complete UTMB World Series coverage. We’re heading into August… less than a month from UTMB week. Things are heating up and there’s A LOT of news to cover. Stay up to date and never miss a beat by bookmarking ECC!
