The race that is secret every year ... except in 2024n and 2025 😉
Sunday 1st June 2025

Infos

yOU CAN'T DO THE RACE IN 2024...

Come and run on the same course as the European Trail Championships

If you’re a competitor at heart, if you like a sporting challenge, if you like to run in the footsteps of champions, then this is the ideal race for you !

The 58km, 3500m Shokz-Race, a South/North crossing of Lake Annecy through the mountains, is the 2025 race for you !

This year, as you understood, the Shokz-Race will follow the same route as the 2024 European Trail Championships.

Even though the Shokz-Race’s time barriers are calculated on a performance index of 450, you’ll need at least 420 performance index points to register or benefit from a transfer or resale of a race number.

–> The registration module automatically checks the ITRA performance index data base : https://itra.run/Runners/FindARunner.

For your information, we do not use the UTMB Groupe database, which is a private company. The MaXi-Race has no connection with the “UTMB Groupe”.
