about the event

The 2027 Red Rock Challenge is expected on Saturday 9 and Sunday 10 October 2027, dates estimated from previous editions (held on the weekend of the second Sunday of October in 2023, 2024, 2025 and 2026, the organiser's own "second weekend of October"); the organiser has not announced them yet. Run by the Red Rock Challenge asbl, it combines trail running, X-duathlon, gravel and mountain biking through the former mining area of southern Luxembourg. In recent editions the trail runs (10.5, 19.2 and 29 km) took place on the Saturday and the bike races on the Sunday. This page will be updated as soon as the official date is published.

Preparing for Red Rock Challenge Trail Run 2027?

Most probable date, pending the organiser's announcement. The countdown is indicative; the training calendar is offered once the date is confirmed.

Race day is Sat 9 Oct 2027, in 343 days. Counted back from that date, a two-week taper would start on Mon 27 Sep 2027; the planner lays out base, build and peak from the day you set it. The taper is the one phase with a meta-analysed optimum: about two weeks, training volume cut by 41 to 60 percent, intensity and frequency kept (Bosquet et al. 2007). A standard structure, not a training plan and not medical advice.

Training is easier in a group: running clubs in Luxembourg
