“Ultrarunning is this expression of the human spirit that feels like it comes from deep within my bones, and part of being in this sport is wanting to test yourself against the best.

It’s my first year as a professional and I expect there could be times where I’m in tenth… or sometimes when I’m in second or first.

But when the pain hits... my first reaction is “good, this is what I’m here for.”

1st Phorm Athlete kiliankorth has been focused on 200-mile races since 2022.

In 2022, he took on the Cocodona 250, but DNF (did not finish) after tearing his hamstring.

In 2023, he returned to the same race, only to DNF again after a severe allergic reaction to desert plants.

Then in 2024, two more races ended early because of breathing issues and a hamstring strain.

After hitting what felt like the lowest point of his running career, Kilian knew something deeper had to change, so he made a complete mindset shift which led him to winning the Triple Crown - three separate 200+ mile races in a single season in 2025.

Now, he returns to the Cocodona 250 with unfinished business.

We’re excited to follow him as he chases redemption where the journey first began.

Stay tuned.
