LI.T.R. - A running event as a team sport?!

Running an ultra trail run and experience the beautiful mountain panoramas...

... something many people dream of. But due to the length and severity of the events, this experience is not usually denied to ultra-fit people. While some event organizers are tackling this problem with rather unsatisfactory “stripped down versions” of their actual main route, the boys and girls from LI.T.R (advertised for the Lipno Trail Run) are taking other paths. They organize The Ultra as a team event.

The project is being built in southern Bohemia, which combines sporting performance and team spirit with the history of lost villages and culture.

‍

There is no big agency behind the creation of Li.t.R. but a group of friends from South Bohemia. It combines sporting enthusiasm, entrepreneurial spirit and, above all, love for home. After spending years participating on national and European routes and organising various events, they decided to create an event based on their own ideas.

“We wanted to use our experience and develop the trail experience for everyone. ”

But Li.t.R. is not just about covering kilometers; it is a mission to get to know the Lipno region. Die 108 km long route with 2,000 meters of altitude difference takes participants to places with forgotten stories that have happened here, whether in deep forests or under the water surface of Lake Lipno. Runners cross sunken villages, historic water canals, ruins and border areas.

The race is in 10 sections subdivided and offers two main categories. The Solo Ultra category is for everyone who wants to feel the “full” experience for themselves. The relay category offers a team experience of sporting performance, which can be divided into small (2-3 runners) or large teams (4-5 runners). The series format in particular makes the event a platform for strengthening communities, running clubs and company collectives. The main goal is not performance, but shared experience and the joy of shared adventures in nature.

All of this is done in an authentic and friendly atmosphere that invites everyone to participate — both professionals and amateur runners are welcome at the start.

It is not about a one-off “expiry”, but about a weekend festival that combines sport, culture and education. There is an accompanying program for families and fans, including local gastronomy and local providers. The mission of Li.t.R. is that the region benefits from the event and is not exploited.
