L'Ultra Cool Triathlon de Laurent Tricarico

About the race

L'Ultra Cool Triathlon is exactly what the name suggests: no timing, no officials, and everyone starts and finishes together. The format consists of several mini triathlons spread over the day, so you join in whenever it suits you. The swim is in the Lago Mons pool — 750 metres, or twenty minutes, whichever comes first — then a bike loop of 36 kilometres towards Sirault and back, and finally a flat run loop of 4.5 kilometres around the Grand-Large. The proceeds go to three charities. It is a triathlon for anyone wanting the distance without the race around it.
