Limits exist only in our minds.
Can you imagine yourself being alone for quit a long period of time? Do you know how it feels when you don’t need to talk or listen to anyone, simply run a road ahead, face to face with an arid desert?
Or what is the temperature like when a horizon line is melting into the sky? – You’ve never been in such conditions before, but no doubt, you will be so much attracted by a blue lake from which you cannot drink even a mouthful of water, because it’s the saltiest in Europe.
Are you brave enough to run a broken sandy trail really fast or are you willing to push yourself to your limits while you are moving through the scenic, yet unrelenting tracks filled with stones, grass, numerous ascents and descents?
Make no mistake, Elton Ultra Trail is one of the most severe Russian races. Are you up to the challenge?
