Roll of Honour and History of the Corsa della Bora<\/h1>\n\n\n

From 2015 to the present: winners, figures and editions of a race that changes every year.<\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n\n

The Corsa della Bora was founded in 2015 and held its first official edition in 2016, organised by ASD SentieroUNO in Trieste. Every year it runs across the Italian and Slovenian Karst, with the start and finish between central Trieste and PortoPiccolo (Sistiana). The 2027 edition (9\u201310 January 2027) is the 12th edition<\/strong>: 11 editions completed so far, from 2016 to 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The race brings together athletes from 70 nations<\/strong><\/a>, with around 3,300 participants<\/strong> per edition in recent years. The event now features 7 races<\/strong>, from the 5.5 km S1 Borin to the 116 km S1 Bora Ultra \u2014 the longest distance of the 2027 edition \u2014 with entry fees locked at \u201c\u20ac1 per km\u201d since 2016. Several distances are ITRA and UTMB Index qualifiers, and the event is held under the aegis of CONI\/AICS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Race distances and names have changed almost every year: there is no single course that stays the same from one edition to the next, which is why there is no \u201ccourse record\u201d (see below). The roll of honour should therefore be read edition by edition, not as a continuous series over the same distance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Roll of honour \u2014 winners by edition<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The middle distance: from the S1 Trail 57 km to the S1 TransKarst Ultra 55 km<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This distance \u2014 now the S1 TransKarst Ultra, 55 km \u2014 is the heir to the historic 57\u201358 km race that for years was the event\u2019s middle-distance challenge, before it became a loop in 2026. Its name in the timing system has changed several times over the years: the table below shows the name under which each edition is listed today, which is not necessarily the one announced to the public at the time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The premier ultra: from the Ipertrail and So\u010da Ultra to the S1 Bora Ultra 116 km<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The event\u2019s ultra distance has changed its name and length several times: S1 Ultra and Ipertrail (164\u2013169 km, point-to-point), then S1 So\u010da Ultra (164 km), S1 Anniversary Ultra (105 km) and, from 2027, S1 Bora Ultra (116 km), now the event\u2019s longest distance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
