With less than a week to go until UTMB, Nike ACG issued major news: an All Conditions Racing Department has been officially established, and the team's roster was revealed today. Among the 22 elite athletes, 14 are American, six are from Europe, and two are Chinese athletes Han Guangxiong and Ren Ti. Many of these athletes have stood on the top step at major international events and delivered remarkable performances. The American athlete who won this year's Western States 100 Caleb Olson; Champion of the Broken Arrow Sky Race vertical category Christian Allen; This year's Black Canyon Supertrail women's champion Riley Brady; Nienke Brinkman, who holds a PhD in physics, was also the 2023 Zegama-Aizkorri women's champion; The 2025 Aran Valley Ultra 100km champion Baptiste Coatantiec; 2023 Black Canyon Super Trail champion, 2023 Western States 100 3rd place Anthony Costales; Last year'sBlack Canyon Super Ultra trail women's champion was also last year's HK100 30 km category women's championRachel Drake; This year's Golden Trail Series MexicoTepec trail race的女子冠军 Lauren Gregory; 2023 CCC men's 5th, 2025 Lavaredo 80 km category champion Drew Holmen; This year's Golden Trail Series China stop, Jinshanling Great Wall Trail Race, men's 5th Cesare Maestri; 2025 Eiger Ultra-Trail women's champion Daniela Oemus; All Conditions Racing Department athletes will, outside of competition, test and provide feedback on Nike ACG footwear and apparel, and participate in the development of the breakthrough material Nike Radical AirFlow, continuing Nike's "athlete co-creation" model. When a brand-new team is formed, can we expect them to bring a new wave of surprises on the racecourse? At the very least, we can already feel that competition on the trail running scene has become increasingly intense — products, athletes, and events. As for the runners, they've long been eager to dive into this wave. Text: David/ Editor:David Images:Trail Running Big Bang/Visuals: Five YearsTrainee
