Qualifying Points For OMAN by UTMB®
The ITRA (International Trail-Running Association) evaluates the points awarded by a race according to its distance, height gain and autonomy (aid stations vs runners being self-sufficient). According to the ITRA points awarded, the race can apply to become a UTMB qualifying race. UTMB must accept the request in order for a race to award a certain number of points, equivalent to the ITRA points.
Each runner will need to have the required qualifying points in order to enter and compete in their chosen Oman by UTMB 2020 race category. These will have been collected by finishing applicable races hosted from 1st January 2017 – 31st October 2020. A list of qualifying races can be found on the UTMB website.
If you have any enquires regarding the status of your current ITRA points, please contact ITRA directly.
