Questions about ultramarathons worldwide
Which road ultramarathons are coming up in the world?
Day of the Dead Running Series is listed for 24 October 2026. Sekinchan Ultra is listed for 24 October 2026 (entry closed). The New Orleans Ultramarathon and Half is listed for 24 October 2026. Check the race guide and organiser’s latest information before making plans.
Where can I find race entry details for the world?
Follow the link from the race guide to the organiser or entry provider, where one is available. Check the entry deadline, eligibility and current availability there. A listed race date does not necessarily mean entries are still open.
Why has a race moved out of the upcoming calendar?
Once its listed dates have passed, a race moves to the past-editions view unless another upcoming edition is recorded. Cancelled events also leave the upcoming list. The race guide stays available, and the event returns when a new date is added.
