About the event

Running January 13-20, 2027 in AlUla, Saudi Arabia, this event offers a 400km solo extreme category, an A+ 121km solo challenge, an A 121km team relay, a B 121km solo crossing, a C 30km single-day taster, and a Youth 90km family expedition. Registration is first-come, first-served.
The 400km Solo Extreme runs continuously with no mandatory rest, fully self-navigated and self-supported, checkpoints cleared in order within the time limit. The A+ 121km Solo Challenge follows the same self-supported format over 121km. The A 121km Team Relay is a four-day staged event for teams of 3-5, with at least 3 finishers required and ranking based on the team's third-fastest finisher. The B 121km Solo Crossing is a four-day staged solo event ranked by cumulative time. The C 30km Single-Day Taster is a one-day immersive outdoor experience. The Youth 90km Family Expedition is a three-day staged event with children accompanied by a guardian throughout, 15km per day counting as that day's finish.
From the vast expanse of the eastern Gobi to an ancient desert realm on the other side of the world -- every step into open wilderness is a chance to look inward and remake yourself.
