Description
The Vagamon Ultrail is an ultra trail marathon organized by Soles of Cochin, in the hills of Vagamon, the only one of its kind in Kerala. Vagamon Ultrail offers two categories in the 2022 edition - Fun Run & 60 Kilometers.
Fun Run - The Fun Run is a new category introduced from last year – primarily for those who wants to run their first trail race. It is a point to point route on our course taking runners through the tea estates, slush & single path trails. Believe us, it will be tough and will definitely get you addicted to trail running. The fun will start from Vagamon Eco Adventures Park at 07:30 AM and finish at St. Thomas LP School, Pullikkanam and last 32 Kilometers. There is no stage cut-off and final cut-off. Everyone who finishes will be awarded medal and timing. The cumulative elevation gain of the course is 900m.
60K - The 60K run starts at Vagamon Eco Adventures Park and is a point to point course taking runners through the most beautiful locales in Vagamon while still posing enough challenges for a regular marathon runner. The course takes you through different terrains and will finish at St. Thomas LP School Pullikanam. The course will have a cumulative elevation gain of 2000m.
After assessing last edition's finisher to start ratio, we have decided to modify the Qualification criteria for Vagamon Ultrail 2022. The emphasis has always been on proper training and preparedness for a good trail experience and not for making the race entry difficult for participants.
The Qualification criteria will now be:
Fun Run - Must have run a half marathon
60K - Registrants must have completed a Full Marathon in 05:15Hrs or any Ultra Marathon within the cut-off time prescribed by the organizers of the race. For 12hr runs like stadium runs, one must have atleast run 60Kms.
NB:
- Runners must submit the hyperlink to the timing certificate or a shareable result link or link to their ITRA profile during registration.
- Races run after 01-Jul-2019 will only be considered as a qualifying race for Vagamon Ultrail 2022.
- Anyone who registers without submitting or fulfilling the criteria will have their registration cancelled and entry fees forfeited.
- Registrations will tentatively open on 25-March-2022.
- After registration, If you cannot participate in the race for some reason, you should notify us by May15th 2022 and get your registration cancelled. Your registration cannot be swapped with anyone else or carried over to future editions. We will issue a refund of ₹1000/- for all such voluntary cancellations intimated to us before 15th May. But the refund will only be issued after the race day provided that your cancelled slot have been taken by another runner.
