2026 UTMB ultra-trail race results
Overview
The 2026 Ultra-Trail du Mont-Blanc (UTMB) race was impacted by threatening thunderstorms, which caused a two-hour delay to the start and a shortened course of approximately 172 kilometers with 9,700 meters of elevation gain.
In the men’s category, American runner Ben Dhiman won with a time of 18:16:29, finishing over half an hour ahead of runner-up Baptiste Chassagne. Caleb Olson secured third place.
In the women’s category, Blandine L’Hirondel of France completed the course in 21:54:49. Her performance was noted as the first time a woman finished the race in under 22 hours, though the time is not considered an official course record due to the modified route. L’Hirondel utilized Kiprun Kipsummit Race footwear, featuring carbon fiber plates and A-TPU foam, during her victory.
