Race planning

Plan Oman by UTMB

Use the listed edition as your starting point. Each tool keeps imported race facts separate from the targets and assumptions you choose.

Edition notes: Registration for the Hajar Ultra and the 100K Jabal Classic was still open on October 20, 2026; the 50K, 30K and 20K races are sold out. There is no waiting list, and entries cannot be transferred to another runner. The organizer’s registration page gives February 9 (priority) and February 11, 2026 (general) as opening dates, while UTMB’s November 2025 announcement had said February 3 and 5. The race page lists bib collection on December 5–6 in Muscat and December 8–9 at the Race Village, 10:00 AM to 10:00 PM, but the event schedule shows 4:00 to 9:00 PM on December 5, 6 and 8, with the Muscat venue still to be confirmed. UTMB Live had no 2026 page on October 20.
