Petite Trotte à Léon: looking for a team
By Julien on Monday, December 8 2008, 10:56 - PTL - Permalink
As you may know I'm considering to attempt to run the "Petite Trotte à Léon" with Sven in 2009. This is a kind of super-UTMB, but with much less people. 250km +18,000m ascent on high-mountain terrain in less than 100 hours by teams of 3, including 2 UTMB finishers.
We're looking for a UTMB finisher with a similar pace to ours, ie. UTMB finishers in around 30 to 40h, although this event will involve more walking and less running I suppose. Our aim is to enjoy the views and to finish - no stress. As we'll need to train together, it's necessary for our running mate to live in mainland UK.
I've been asking around a bit these days, but it's not that easy to find, although there is a fairly big "market" if you look at the UTMB forum. This morning, 5 out of 6 threads on the first page of the forum were seeking for race partners in French, German and English.

Ultra team request.
