BIB Distribution and Acclimatization
Join us at the BIB Expo in Leh on 13 July 2025, where participants of the Ladakh Umlingla Challenge will collect their race kits. This crucial event, held seven days prior to the race, provides an excellent opportunity for runners to meet fellow participants, gain valuable race information, and get a head start on acclimatization. Given the extreme altitude of Umlingla Pass, acclimatization is essential for ensuring a safe and successful race. Leh, situated at an altitude of around 3,500 meters, offers the perfect environment for participants to begin this vital process, gradually adjusting to the high altitude conditions they will face on race day. Don't miss this chance to prepare your body and mind for the world's highest road ultra marathon!
