The International Skyrunning Federation represents the governing authority of skyrunning – defined as mountain running above 2,000m over extremely technical trails. Three disciplines define the sport which are not just based on distance, but vertical climb and technical difficulty: Sky, SkyUltra and Vertical.
From sea to sky, skyrunning spans the great outdoors, across the world’s mountain ranges…and the imagination of thousands of participants and fans. It’s a sport born in the wild, where the logic was to reach the highest peak in the shortest time from a town or village.
#MYSKYRACE is a project offering skyrunners of all levels a unique preview of their own potential in a given race – in advance. The personalised information based on biometrics will help you plan your next race, to train on the actual course, to programme your nutrition and get insurance cover in both racing and training.
