An Inspiringly Awesome (but Tough) Trail Running Challenge in the "Hidden Gem" of Europe. VLT is the showcase, premier race of the Ukrainian series in 2019. This is a tough 70+ km challenge with as much or more total vertical gain as mountain races of similar length. VLT will take you through some amazing and diverse scenery. Underfoot, the trail is as interesting and challenging as any you'll find anywhere - you really can expect to be pleasantly surprised here. This is not an easy race, but it's great both inherently as a race unto itself or as an early-season training challenge for those who will be doing longer and/or technical races later in the summer. This race is solely for those with some trail running experience. Time limits are tough but fair, and have been set for most people to finish under moderately muddy conditions. If you are coming from abroad, we encourage you to sign up for this distance - you will not be disappointed.
