Electric Cable Car is part of Trail Tracks Network.
Just a month until the new Skyrunner USA National Series kicks off. Four incredible races invite you to touch the sky: Whiteface Skyrace, Beast of Big Creek, Skeetawk Skyline Scramble, Kismet Cliff Run.
One of those famous island races that’s perfectly located for Europeans to travel to in the early season is happening this weekend on May 11. The field is selection of the global who’s-who in trail running including Germans Hannes Namberger and Katharina Harthmuth. Live-tracking can be found here and live screening right on their website and on YouTube.
Transvulcania made news in the fall of last year when it parted ways with UTMB and rather than joining the World Trail Majors (which at the time of departure hadn’t been announced yet) went “independent and local again”. Adidas went all in as sponsor of the event. Which seems to be a bit of a thing for Adidas. They scoop up and sponsors the big events that are still independent.
