All Eyes on Team Salomon at UTMB® 2025
The UTMB® Mont-Blanc is the highlight of the global trail running calendar. Every year, thousands of athletes gather in Chamonix, just over the mountains from Salomon’s headquarters in Annecy, to take on some of the most demanding and beautiful trails in the world. With multiple race formats spread across the week, UTMB® has become the defining stage of the sport, and in 2025, Team Salomon is lining up with one of its strongest squads yet.
ETC — 15 km, 1,200 m+ Tuesday, August 26th
The Experience Trail Courmayeur (ETC) may be the shortest event of UTMB week, but its 15 km route with 1,200 m of climbing is a fierce opener. Salomon’s lineup includes Naomi Lang, Fabian Venero, Mael Henric, and Omi Ryunosuke — a group of dynamic young athletes eager to make their mark.
OCC — 55 km, 3,500 m+ Thursday, August 28th
At 55 km with 3,500 m of elevation gain, the OCC (Orsières–Champex–Chamonix) is known for its intensity and depth of competition. Representing Salomon this year are Ezekiel Rutto, Sophia Laukli, Miao Yao, Joyline Chepngeno, and Pol Makuri. From Sophia’s background as a world-class Nordic skier, to Joyline, Miao, and Ezekiel’s breakthrough seasons on the trails, and Pol’s inspiring presence from our Para-Team, this lineup showcases both speed and resilience.
CCC® — 100 km, 6,000 m+ Friday, August 29th
The CCC® (Courmayeur–Champex–Chamonix) is a serious test in its own right, with 100 km and 6,000 m of elevation gain. Many legends have first proven themselves here before stepping up to UTMB®. Team Salomon’s roster includes Bart Przedwojewski, Simon Paccard, Huohua Zhang, Aurore Dacier, Dan Green, Julie Roux, and Julien Veysseyre. With experienced competitors alongside Julien from our Para-Team who will be taking on the challenge of 100 km, this team embodies both determination and diversity.
UTMB® — 174 km, 9,900 m+ Friday, August 29th
The UTMB® is the ultimate test: 174 km with nearly 10,000 m of elevation gain, circling the Mont Blanc massif. Team Salomon will be represented by Lucy Bartholomew, Camille Bruyas, François D’Haene, and Courtney Dauwalter. Both François and Courtney are multiple-time champions of the race, while Camille has stood proudly on the podium. Together, they bring unmatched experience, resilience, and the ability to deliver on the sport’s biggest stage.
