Ran the MS2S 100K in 2006

Hi, well done, congratulations. I entered/ran/walked the MS2S in 2006 by way of celebrating my 60th birthday! The whole thing from beginning to end is one amazing experience.

Race is an unforgettable wonderful experience

Have run twice, the 42 and 100KM. Each new view is spectacular and nature at its best. Brilliant camaraderie, very well organized, and the pervasive magic in the air that is uniquely Mongolian.

MAGICAL! Not a race, but AN EXPERIENCE!

If you like mountain runs and nature, this is yours! Not a marathon to improve your PR, but pure magic. I signed up for 100K, but after the first 2 hills, I walked the rest and loved every minute of it - and that for nearly 19 hours! The scenery is magical and even though you will not find any spectators, the support and organizers are very enthousiastic. As all runners sign up for a whole week, the team spirit is great and I was hauled in by all other runners in the camp.

Trail running in the Mongolian wilderness is a unique adventure. Registrations for the 19th edition of the breathtaking Mongolia Sunrise to Sunset 42km and 100km are now open on www.ms2s.org. You cannot feel further away from the hectic, modern world: Wild horses, yaks, untouched nature, some shamanic "Ovoos" and a few Mongolian gers here and there. Every year since 1999, runners from all around the world soak up this unique atmosphere and participate in the Mongolia Sunrise to Sunset (MS2S). The MS2S, a non-profit 42km and 100km ultra trail run, is without a doubt among the most beautiful and memorable runs on the planet: seas of Edelweiss and other wildflowers, the majestic mountains, marshy forests and of course the deep blue pearl of Mongolia, Lake Hovsgol.
