Zegama-Aizkorri 2026

Zegama-Aizkorri 2026 – how to qualify and train for such an explosive race

Zegama-Aizkorri is not just another trail race on the calendar. It is one of the most iconic, demanding, and emotionally charged mountain races in the world. Short on distance but brutal in execution, Zegama rewards very specific qualities: explosive strength, technical confidence, and the ability to suffer at high intensity for several hours without losing efficiency. If you are targeting Zegama-Aizkorri 2026, you need to understand two things clearly from the start: qualifying is competitive and increasingly selective finishing strong requires a very different preparation compared to longer Alpine ultras This guide breaks down the qualification process, the ideal runner profile, and the training approach you need if you want to arrive at the start line ready to race—not just survive.

Trail running training plan: how to build a strong base at the start of the year

Starting the year without a clear structure is one of the most common mistakes in trail running. Motivation is high, races feel close, and intensity often arrives too early. A well-designed trail running training plan helps you avoid injuries, build durability, and prepare your body for the demands of technical terrain and elevation gain. The goal of the preseason is not speed. It is preparation. A strong base allows everything else to work later. This article explains how to structure your preseason into three complementary blocks: strength, volume, and technique. Why starting the season with a structured trail running training plan matters Trail running is not road running on dirt. It requires strength, stability, coordination, and long-term resilience. Without a base, intensity becomes risky. With

Winter Spine Race

Winter Spine Race: Antonio Codina on Finishing One of the Toughest Ultra Races in the World

The Winter Spine Race is widely regarded as one of the toughest ultra-trail races in the world. Covering 268 miles along the Pennine Way, in the heart of a British winter, it demands total self-sufficiency, navigation skills, resilience to cold, darkness, sleep deprivation, and the ability to keep moving when conditions become truly extreme. Finishing the Winter Spine Race 2025 is not simply a sporting result — it is a profound physical and psychological achievement. In this interview, we speak with Antonio Codina, a multiple-time Winter Spine Race finisher, who has completed both the Challenger and the full 268-mile race across several editions, including Spine Race 2025. Drawing on years of experience, Antonio shares what it really takes to survive one of the world’s most
