News Release / 10.09.2013

Endurance Aventure is preparing its next extraordinary event that will take place in Saint-Donat on September 14^th. Le Grand Prix Saint-Donat is a new original concept designed, once again, for people wilder than average!

Triathlon

The day will start by a triathlon including 750m swim, 20km bicycling and 5.8km running. The athletes will jump off a boat to start the 750 m swim and reach the shores of Archambault Lake. The triathletes will then have the chance to take a wonderful bicycle route for 20 km on roads following lakes and mountains. In order to complete the race, the athletes will run for 5.8 km on a wonderful route that will be a mix of asphalt road, wooded bicycling paths, including the famous “Montée du diable” hill about 500m from the finish.

Raid Endurance Aventure - Saint-Donat

In the afternoon at 1.30 pm, the Raid Endurance Aventure takes place. All the participants, in teams of two, will have to compete at mountain biking, running, trekking, climbing and many other surprises to reach the end. The format of this 2013 edition will allow everyone who always dreamed to take part into a Raid to do so without spending all the day. And for the adepts of challenges wilder than average, an extreme section will raise the challenge to a maximum. This Raid is an ultimate challenge both for new comers and elite raiders.

Grand Prix Saint-Donat

Finally, the Grand Prix concept is aimed at those who ask for even more! This formula combines the triathlon in the morning and the Raid Endurance Aventure in the afternoon. This unique formula in Québec will offer full satisfaction in term of sport intensity, endurance and diversity! The Grand Prix can be done in team of two or solo.

Running

Two races are also available for the runners: a 5km and a 10km run will start at 10.00 am. The routes will follow a wonderful countryside road along the Archambault Lake and a beautiful wooded bicycle path called la Donatienne.
