What's the Challenge?
They say, “Do more of what makes you happy.” We say why stop at happy, when you can also be gloriously exhausted, proudly muddy, and slightly addicted to mountain trails?
First winner of Triple Crown Challenge, the man with the idea, was Robert Hajnal - the legendary Romanian ultra trail runner.
That’s the spirit of the Triple Crown Challenge: three races in three days, each one showing you a different face of Bucovina:
The main long-distance epic races of Bucovina Ultra Rocks by UTMB (choose your weapon: ULTRA ROCKS, FOUR SUMMITS, LADY'S ROCKS, RADICAL or ROCKY)
The quick-fire fun of the 5K RUNC CHALLENGE (Friday morning)
And the rocky rhythm of the 15K RUMBLE ROCK (Sunday).
Here’s the deal: sign up to experience more trails, more views, more of Bucovina and possibly more sore muscles than you thought you owned.
Why the Triple Crown Challenge?
Besides the unique opportunity to run 3 races at the same event, a first in Romania, we also give you:
- Triple Crown Challenge Official T-Shirt
- Finisher (or, dare we say, “winner”?) medals for each race you run

Add to this the satisfaction of crossing the finish line 3 times, 3 days in a row, at one of the harderst trail running competitions in Romania, and be sure to leave with priceless memories.
