The only North American event that is part of the XTRI WORLD TOUR series, the 2022 CANADA MAN / WOMAN will be launched at 4:30 a.m., when participants will dive into the cold waters of Lac Mégantic to swim 3.8 km. The extreme endurance-based adventure will continue with a 180 km biking section lined with picturesque rolling hills offering a 2 500 m elevation gain. Ultimately, participants will run 42 km to reach the summit of Mont-Mégantic, after a full day of superhuman efforts. 

Athletes will have until midnight to reach the finish line arch, after overcoming 226 km and a 4 000 m positive altitude change between the time the sun comes up and the time the stars come out.
