Clear skies prevailed for the 100-kilometer 2025 CCC race from Courmayeur, Italy, to Champex-Lac, Switzerland, finishing in Chamonix, France. The course covered 62.1 miles with 20,013 feet of elevation and drew over 2,100 starters at a 9:00 a.m. Friday, August 29 start. The race was the UTMB World Series Final for the 100k distance and paid €13,000 to winners from a €75,000 purse. Some elite runners chose the shorter CCC to prioritize recovery for the World Mountain and Trail Running Championships in Spain. Martyna Młynarczyk won the women's race in 11:41 with Sylvia Nordskar 18 seconds back. Francesco Puppi attacked after Champex-Lac near mile 34 and soloed to a 10:06 victory.
While the weather impacted races earlier in the week, it was clear skies for much of the 100-kilometer 2025 CCC race. The course ran from Courmayeur, Italy, to Champex-Lac, Switzerland, and ultimately to the finish in Chamonix, France. The race totaled 20,013 feet of elevation over its 62.1-mile distance and had over 2,100 runners on its 9:00 a.m. start line on Friday, August 29.
With an eye toward recovery for next month's World Mountain and Trail Running Championships in Spain, some top runners who would typically race the full UTMB loop opted for the shorter CCC race. Martyna Młynarczyk (Poland) fought off a late-race challenge from Sylvia Nordskar (Norway) to win the women's race in 11:41. Nordskar was only 18 seconds behind as the two ran the race's second- and third-fastest times ever.
