Infinity trail

The numbers may be impressive, but the format is accessible to all!

The principle is simple: cover 6.7 km in less than 1 hour, averaging 6.7 km/h. Accessible, isn’t it? Whether you’re aiming for 3, 5 or more laps, there’s a place for you! 💪

On our Backyard in Normandy, two participants stopped after 2 laps, and the participants’ average was 10.2 laps. No pressure, just the pleasure of surpassing yourself.

This loop format is ideal for testing out longer distances, approaching ultra trail running or simply beating your own records. What’s more, you always return to base camp every hour and are never more than 3 km from the start – it’s a safe race, even at night. 🌙

And here’s a statistic that may convince you: 50% beat their distance record and 20% double it!

So what are you waiting for? Go for it!
