“Great trails, perfect running weather, and people I love running with—everything came together for a perfect day.”

The runner tackled the 20km course at Bbang Trail Run with crewmates, enjoying food and conversation at three aid stations. Focusing on time together rather than the clock made Untangodo's long mountain trails feel manageable.

“Still, I kept running hard to the end without giving up.”

On a first visit to Bbang Trail Run with his wife, the runner walked the climbs of the 12km race and sped up on flats and descents. Enjoying bread and ice cream at aid stations, he overcame the final climb and heavy legs to finish in 2 hours 33 minutes 12 seconds.

Bbang Trail Run is a trail race in High1 Resort and along the Skyway in Jeongseon, Gangwon Province.

It brings the concept of Bbangbbang Run, a road-running event themed around bread, onto mountain trails, combining food and running in a single event.

The distances range from the shorter course to the longer course.

The longest course includes every aid station featured in the event, so the places you visit vary depending on the distance you choose.

As you follow the mountain trails, the aid stations each have their own theme: a café, a pastry shop, a chocolate factory and an ice cream shop.

Rather than serving a particular food only at the finish, the event builds the food-themed story into the route itself.

The forest café and storybook pastry-shop settings carry the race’s name forward through course.

The course links the roads around the resort and returns to the starting plaza, making the mountain resort the central backdrop of the race.

The side events include a running market, an event area and photo spots featuring bread-themed props.

Alongside information about trail-result certification,

the organisers also run a campaign donating bakery products to children from disadvantaged backgrounds in Gangwon Province.

Connecting the food-themed event with support for local children is central to its purpose.

The race brings mountain-distance competition, a food theme and charitable activity together on one stage.

When choosing course, look at both the aid stations included in your event and the full route to better understand the character of the race.

The route to the event venue depends on where you park.

If you park near the Mountain Ski House, walk to the plaza;

if you use the High1 Hill parking area, take the circulating shuttle.

The official guidance also includes parking at Hill Condo or Valley Condo and taking the cable car towards Mountain Condo.

Nearby parking areas may fill first, so decide on an alternative route before you set out.

Proxy bib pickup and participation by proxy are not allowed for bib, so you must complete the procedures yourself.
