Success in all your trail races, whatever the format, leaves nothing to chance.

In addition to a preparation physical and mental beforehand, it is essential to have the right good kit. With or without assistance, get ready to take on the trails of the world's greatest races! With distances far exceeding a marathon in the biggest events, follow in the footsteps of the top athletes — prepare yourself!

To help you get organised, here is a list of mandatory kit on most ultra-trail®.

Mandatory trail gear: What trail equipment should you choose? What trail kit for my ULTRAS?

Trail gear to bring to training and competition:

Hydration pack or vest
A reusable cup (eco-friendly) for aid stations,
Trail head torch (1 main and 1 backup on long outings) with spare batteries and/or a spare battery pack,
ID document,
A phone that works in the country or countries of the race (bear in mind that some routes may take you across borders!),
A whistle (often attached to the pack),
Elastic adhesive tape for bandaging and strapping,
Emergency blanket,
Water supply (hydration bladder and/or flask) minimum 1 litre — make sure you identify water points before the race start,
Food supply (gels, fruit pouches, energy bars or whatever you can digest while racing).

The preferred trail kit, from technical clothing carefully chosen:

1 waterproof jacket with a hood, all seams must be heat-sealed to ensure waterproofing — don't overlook the breathability of the membrane, as it is this feature that allows moisture to escape: discover Cimalp's Ultrashell® membrane on our windproof and waterproof trail jackets (equivalent to Gore-Tex),
1 long-sleeved warm layer,
1 technical trail running t-shirt in polyester or another technical fabric,
Warm, waterproof gloves,
Beanie, cap, bandana or buff,
1 trail running trousers or shorts covering the legs fully + 1 pair of shorts,
1 pair of waterproof overtrousers.

Recommended:

Phone + the Livetrail4Runners app + a power bank,
A change of clothes,
Trail poles (provided you know how to use them),
Anti-chafing cream,
A little cash (around £20),
A navigation/survival kit (GPS watch, knife, sewing kit, lighter…)

Depending on weather conditions, the required kit may evolve with the addition of protection against cold or heat!

Trail shoes, a key piece of kit:

A pair of running shoes that you have already trained in, ideally with a mesh upper for better breathability, with a good sole offering solid grip on technical terrain (Vibram soles are top-notch). The pair of shoes must be suited to your gait — every trail runner must find the running shoe that fits their needs, their morphology and their trail practice.

TRAIL RUNNING TIPS: GEARING UP FOR AN ULTRA

Don't overlook the 3th layer (windproof, waterproof and breathable jacket): your shelter from the elements!
Think about trail trousers or trail overtrousers waterproof — essential for tough conditions and/or when fatigue sets in over the kilometres of racing
Invest in a pair of shoes comfortable and durable (tested and approved beforehand): without mastery, power is nothing!
In cold conditions as well as in full light, protect your eyes with a pair of sunglasses photochromic, whose tint and level of protection automatically adjust according to light conditions.
If you want to go the distance, take care of your feet with socks breathable, blister-resistant and cushioned to absorb shocks.
To see the light at the end of the tunnel, count on a high-performance head torch: powerful, comfortable, non-slip and supplied with a battery and spare batteries for an extended runtime of over 100 hours.
