00:00I would define Istria 100 like for everyone because we have five different distances the
00:09shortest one is 21k then we have 42k 69k 110k and the longest one is 168k which is actually
00:19100 miles a lot of suffering but also a lot of joy 168 kilometers this Wow the trail
00:33running community is one of the most amazing communities I've ever had the
00:36opportunity to experience both in the United States and in the other countries
00:40I've visited so I look forward to seeing the community here in Croatia
00:49hey everybody welcome to Croatia to Istria Peninsula the start of the Istria 100 by UTMB
00:57the Queens race we are about 15 minutes away 168 kilometers 6600 meters of positive elevation
01:19the runners will reach to the highest points in Istria most of them during the night the first one but the
01:37second one they will come and see the sunrise and the full view of complete Istria so the runners can
01:47enjoy enjoy the nature in the full potential
01:55so as a Croatian this is the most biggest trail race in the country it's my first time racing 100 miles

02:33the runners who come to Istria they can expect sunny weather as you can see really nice sea views we have a
03:01lot of uphill medieval towns with stone houses and stone street we have a little bit of
03:09coasting we have really technical terrain we have single trails we have steep up hills I think it's a
