Trail de la Mixteca takes place in San Mateo Tlapiltepec, Oaxaca, Mexico.

Trail de la Mixteca has 3 distances: 12K, 22K, and 36K. The longest is the 36K.

No: Trail de la Mixteca is an independent race, not part of a circuit such as the UTMB World Series or the Golden Trail Series.

For the 36K, plan around 16 weeks of specific training if you already run regularly. For the 12K, about 8 weeks are enough. Build up long runs with climbing and add two short strength sessions a week.

It is a technical mountain race: expect rocky trails and steep descents, so train on similar terrain.

For its technical terrain, choose shoes with deep lugs and good protection. Good options: NNormal Kjerag 2, Asics METAFUJI TRAIL 2, and Adidas Terrex Agravic TT. You will find them, and the rest of the gear, in “How to prepare” below.

Registration is on the official website (corremejia.com). Popular races sell out, so check the dates early, and mark it as “I want to register” at the top of this page to keep it in your races.
