Running the SALLANDTRAIL 50K ultra 2025 (and why I'll be back in 2026)

The Sallandtrail is one of the most beloved ultra trail events in the Netherlands—set in the stunning landscapes of the Sallandse Heuvelrug, near Nijverdal. In this video, I take you along for the full race experience: from the start line buzz to the rolling Dutch hills, forest paths, and open heathlands. Whether you're curious about ultra trailrunning in the Netherlands, looking for new trail events to explore, or simply love watching nature-filled running adventures—this video will give you an inside feel of what it's like to participate in the Sallandtrail event. --- NEW TO THE CHANNEL?
