The 2nd Golden Trail Series race of the season happened this weekend in Sichuan, China. In an effort to be more logistically sustainable and to make it easier for runners, the Golden Trail Series is trying to group events geographically together. So, after Kobe Trail in Japan the Series travelled to China for a race for the first time. Greg Vollet, interviewed by Dylan Bowman on Freetrail, mentioned that the reason for Salomon bringing the Golden Trail Series to China was that the CEO of the parent company Anta Sports, a Chinese outdoor good brand, wanted a stop of the Golden Trail Series in China. And so it was.
One thing that’s interesting when comparing results of this Golden Trail Series race the Mount Yun UTMB event is that the Mount Yun podiums were almost completely swept by Chinese runners, were in this race, neither on the women’s nor men’s side any Chinese runners made it into the top 5.
The historic Zegama-Aizkorri in Spain is next on the calendar on May 26, 2024. This will be the first time this year we’ll see Kilian Jornet racing, who’s opted for shorter and more local races, expect a personal project in the early Fall that he hasn’t announced yet.
