This event is credited with four new qualifying points for the UTMB race. The goal is finally to propose a 85% green route! This change required to leave the Atomium, located in the northern "not too green" of Brussels.The new start will be given to the heart of the capital of Europe, at the foot of the European institutions!

This new "blue" start will allow the trailers to dive after a few kilometers in the "green" of the forest, before finishing on the rooftop of the former hippodrome of Boitsfort, offering an exceptional panoramic view on the Fôrêt de Soignes.
