TRIATHLON – The 500 Alpsman Xtrem bibs allocated

Six months before the 4th edition of the Alpsman Xtrem Triathlon (June 8), all 500 bibs have already been taken, proving the enthusiasm for this extreme race (*) with its 5600 m of positive elevation gain, which has already found an important place in the French triathlon calendar.

For its part, the Alpsman Xperience (June 9) changes format this year and becomes a “Tri Race”, an opportunity to test oneself in the three triathlon disciplines but without transitions and over accessible distances (1.2-27-12) with two mass starts for swimming and cycling and a pursuit start for running based on the cumulative times of the first two events.

(*) The Alpsman XXL concept and distances:

• Start from a boat at sunrise (unique in France)
• 3.8 km swim,
• 183 km bike with 5 passes to cross and 4300m D+
• 42 km run with two different finishes. Those who pass “the turning point” at km 26 before the cut-off time will treat themselves to a hellish finish to reach the summit of Semnoz located 1300m higher (Top Finisher). The rest of the athletes will complete the marathon with a finish at the lake (Lake Finisher).
