About this race
An Indian Army initiative launched in 2024, the Spiti Marathon runs through the remote Himalayan valley of Spiti, Himachal Pradesh, where the ground sits above 3,800 m and thin air saps every stride. Its third edition, the Surya Spiti Marathon, spans two days, 28 and 30 August 2026, offering a 77 km Kunzum La ultra, 42.195 km marathon, 21.1 km half and 10 km run past glacial rivers and centuries-old monasteries near Kaza.
