About mozart Light

mozart Light is the 37.0km trail race at mozart 100 by UTMB 2026 (Fuschl am See, Austria). The race starts on May 23, 2026.

Race strategy

Run hard on the first mountain, but save energy for the second.

  • Start easy and control your HR up to 23.7km.
  • Steep 27% wall. Control your pace and stay focused.
  • Hold your race pace up to 32.4km, but stay in control.
  • Ease into the early runnable section, then run your race pace, and go all out on the final descent from 34.4km.
  • Start · 0.0km–2.0km · Race-day nerves push your heart rate up: don't follow the crowd, find your own rhythm.
  • Settle in · 2.0km–23.7km · Plus 1 more climb. Ease in: hold back more than feels necessary. The race is still ahead. Climb by heart rate or breathing, not pace. Running pays off here: run wherever you can.
  • Work · 23.7km–32.4km · Descent of 767m averaging 9%, high point 1098m. This is where the race is built: steady, solid effort. Hike the steepest pitches.
  • Fade · 32.4km–34.4km · Plus 1 more climb. Your energy fades, and that's normal: hold a steady effort and stop counting the miles. Climb by heart rate or breathing, not pace. Your heart rate drifts down on its own: don't chase your early-race numbers, go by feel.
  • Home · 34.4km–36.3km · Descent of 219m averaging 11%. No heroics: settle back into your own effort and hold it to the line.
