In March 2024, ultrarunner Justin Montague completed the 1,374 km MTC JOGLE in a single pair of Mount to Coast R1s, breaking every individual stage record and finishing almost 40 hours ahead of the previous overall record.

In 2025, Meg Eckert broke the women's six-day world record in the R1, covering 971 km. Less than a month later, Matthieu Bonne broke the 29-year-old 48-hour world record, covering 485 km.

These achievements became part of Mount to Coast's early story - putting its approach to long-distance footwear to the test at distances far beyond the everyday.

At Cocodona 250, Mount to Coast athlete Wynonna Curely-Fulgham used the H1 and T1 across the race's constantly changing terrain — choosing the H1 for its versatility and the T1 for more technical sections.

Jamil Coury took the H1 even further, covering more than 965 km in a single pair while winning a 1 168km endurance challenge.

And through its partnership with Badwater 135, Mount to Coast continues to put its technology alongside some of the most demanding endurance events in the world. The C135, introduced for 2026, builds on the award-winning C1 formula.

From the R1's world records to the H1 and C1's place in some of endurance running's most demanding environments, Mount to Coast continues to develop footwear around one fundamental idea: helping runners transcend distance.

Mount to Coast develops proprietary midsole technologies with a focus on the things that matter when the kilometres keep coming: energy return, cushioning, weight and durability.

CircleCELL™ and LightCELL™ are two examples of that approach - different compounds developed for different performance needs, but both designed with long-distance running in mind.

The shape of a running shoe matters just as much as what it's made from. Mount to Coast uses biomechanical research to develop geometries and systems that work with the way runners move - including technologies such as GOFLOW and TUNEDFIT™.

Laboratory testing is only part of the process. Mount to Coast puts its technologies through demanding races and into the hands of elite athletes, using real-world running to challenge and refine the shoes.
