About the Chartreuse Backyard Ultra

The Chartreuse team pairs an unusually runnable river course with the pressure of a silver-level backyard. Mountain views frame a competition designed to reward efficient repetition.

Course

The out-and-back 6.706 km yard follows the Guiers River from the Saint-Laurent-du-Pont gymnasium. Roughly 20 metres of gain keeps the profile very flat.

Race-day weather

Late autumn near the Chartreuse massif can be cold and wet, with fog, frost, or rain possible overnight. Warm dry layers may decide who keeps answering the bell.
