Trail runners with backpacks navigate through a narrow, rocky canyon under a clear blue sky. The towering red rock walls frame the path, creating a dramatic natural setting. Dust rises as the group moves steadily forward. A runner smiles broadly near a finish line arch, wearing a medal and a hydration pack, while someone pours water over their head. Flags and rocky terrain are visible in the background under a clear blue sky. A group of runners participate in a desert marathon, spread out across a sandy and arid landscape. The terrain is dotted with small shrubs, and the competitors are moving along a winding trail under a clear sky.

Organiser's Description

Ultra X Nevada takes place in the beautiful mountainous wilderness that rises out of the Mojave Desert just west of Las Vegas. The race is split between two contrasting landscapes; the Red Rock Canyon Conservation Area and the Spring Mountain Recreation Area.

An Ultra X race is the ultimate test of preparation. A participant who has planned and trained well will be a successful one. It is just as important that participants calculate their water, electrolyte and food requirements, as it is their pacing during this five-day adventure.

This is not a self-supported race. Participants only need to carry their daily provisions of mandatory safety equipment, nutrition, and hydration. Race holdalls are transported between campsites by the organisers and water is resupplied at checkpoints approximately 10km apart. However, weight management is still crucial and runners are advised to only bring items which are essential to their health and comfort.

Ultra X welcomes both runners and walkers. All participants will likely be doing a combination of the two in order to get to the finish line, which is the most important thing.
