It replaces the requirement for a medical certificate by a short online course focusing on risk awareness and best health practices in sport. It takes less than 5 minutes!

New registration validation process with the PPS:

Runners wishing to benefit from a press or sponsor bib for one of the 3 UTMB World Series Finals races (UTMB, CCC, OCC) at the time of registration must provide:

• at least one Running Stone earned in the last two years
• a valid UTMB® index in the category admitted to the final

Runners have the option of registering as a 'group' (a local club or a simple group of friends). The objective of a group entry is that all group members have the same result in the draw, and this may be positive or negative. ​ The following rule applies: each group member participates in the draw with the lowest number of Running Stones held by one of the runners in the group. If the group obtains participation for a final, only the number of Running Stones used will be deducted from each runner. ​ To be eligible for group registration, all members of the group must meet the necessary criteria to participate in the lottery, have a valid UTMB Index, and have earned at least one Running Stone in the past 24 months (UTMB, CCC, OCC). Runners within the same group may register for different races of the HOKA UTMB Mont-Blanc (ETC, OCC, CCC, UTMB). ​ NB: group registration only concerns runners who have to be drawn. Runners who have a reserved place cannot pre-register as a group. ​

Registration is personal and non-transferable. It will not be refunded or postponed for any reason, unless otherwise stated in the regulations. Entries may not be transferred to another race or to another person for any reason.

• Cancellation insurance The purpose of this cancellation insurance is to enable runners to receive a full refund of the entry fee if they wish to cancel their entry for the reasons described in the terms and conditions of insurance, available HERE.

The cancellation insurance must be stipulated at the time of registration.

• Refund without insurance : If the participant does not subscribe to the insurance, no refund will be possible.

• Running Stones and cancellation of an entry Runners who wish to cancel their registration will be refunded the Running Stones used to participate in the lottery as indicated below:

• Runners who have contracted a cancellation insurance and who are cancelling their registration before race day will be reimbursed 100% of the Running Stones used to participate in the lottery.

• Runners who have not subscribed to cancellation insurance and are cancelling their registration before the day of the race will be entitled to a refund of 50% of the Running Stones used to participate in the lottery (rounded up to the nearest whole number).

Example: A runner has used 9 Running Stones for the UTMB lottery. He/she wishes to cancel the entry, but has not signed up for a cancellation insurance, so he/she will be reimbursed 5 Running Stones.

In the case of the cancellation of a race, for any reason whatsoever, decided more than 15 days before the departure date, a partial refund of the registration fees will be made. The amount of this refund will be determined in such a way as to enable the organization to cover all the non-recoverable expenses incurred as of the date of cancellation. In the event of cancellation decided less than 15 days before departure or in the event of interruption of the race, for any reason whatsoever, no registration refund will be made.

You can contact us via the appropriate form to benefit from priority registration under the conditions indicated in the link above.
