UTMB 2026: ACTIVITIES THROUGHOUT THE WEEK
Upcycling & customization workshop
We had fun giving our Eve and Tetras jackets returned through after-sales service a second life by turning them into unique little pouches. These jackets have already lived through some wonderful adventures. They can no longer be repaired, so we gave them a new story.
Each pouch is different, made from original color combinations. Quantities are very limited.
Starting Wednesday, with any purchase over €60, take home your pouch and personalize it on-site with a selection of patches. You can also iron the patches directly onto your own store purchases—a unique way to keep a wonderful souvenir of UTMB 2026.
Competitions
Try your luck to win a complete Lagoped trail outfit (shorts, T-shirt, cap) and a pair of TSL poles. Or take part in the Guess the Pack Weight contest: guess the exact weight of the Lagoped pack, and the closest guess wins it. Competitions and great prizes to be won throughout UTMB Week 2026.
Supporter signs
Come support your runners from Le Refuge. Supporter signs will be available in the store throughout UTMB Week 2026. Come personalize your signs and cheer on your favorite runners throughout the race.
