This week the most watched race in the trail-running scene is the Aran Valley by UTMB. Race categories include VDA 163 km, CDH 110 km, TDL 75 km, PDA 55 km, EXP 32 km, SKY 18 km, etc.

Chinese male elite athlete Wang Ruqin is entered in the PDA 50 km category; the race starts this afternoon Beijing time.

Yao Miao will compete in the CDH 110 km category — her first 100‑km‑level race in three years. Her last century race was the 2023 Ninghai 100 km, where she took the win. Last year she also raced the Aran Valley by UTMB and set the women's course record for the 50 km.

Paoye will livestream these two categories, following Wang Ruqin and Yao Miao throughout their races.

In addition to the Aran Valley race, this week Paoye will also livestream the HYROX Hangzhou stop; actor Wang Qianyuan will participate, and reportedly several other celebrities will take part.
