Shillong, Aug 10: Meghalaya ultramarathoner Dakahi Kyndait has won the women’s 100K category at the One Hundred® Ladakh – Trail to Heaven 2026, part of the One Hundred Ultra Endurance Trail World Championship.
The 2026 edition, held from August 6 to 8, brought athletes to one of the world’s most demanding high-altitude trail-running environments. The event featured 100K, 100-mile and 42K races, with much of the course situated above 3,500 metres in Ladakh’s rugged Himalayan landscape.
The 100K course follows the Markha River through high-altitude valleys and mountain terrain, with significant elevation gain and challenging conditions that test both endurance and acclimatisation.
Congratulating Kyndait on her victory, Meghalaya Chief Minister Conrad K Sangma described her as a seasoned marathoner who has consistently performed strongly and won several competitions over the years.
In a post on X, Sangma said he was happy to have supported Kyndait’s sporting journey and wished her continued success in future competitions.
Kyndait’s victory adds another major achievement to her endurance-running career and puts Meghalaya’s growing sporting talent on an international trail-running platform
