Lake tOur in 1 day Solo :
MaXi-Race

Annecy lake tOur in solo and in 1 day
Saturday 1st June 2024

Infos

Lake tOur solo in 1 day -> New distance !

We’d like to make you aware of the historic difficulty of the tOur du lac course !

We don’t want to set a minimum entry level for this format, but please be aware that without adequate and specific training, it will be difficult to complete the tOur du Lac. This year, we’re introducing routes with bascule 1 and bascule 2 –> depending on when you cross these intersections, you’ll be redirected to “shortcuts = Bascule”. If you cross the finish line, you’ll be a “MaXi-Race finisher” with a time penalty.

Since 2021, all runners dropping out between Doussard and the finish will be classified as “MaXi-Challenger”.

More finisher

*What is "BAscule" or cut system ?

  • To give you more chance of being a finisher, we’ve set up a “bascule” system. 
  • You’ve been training for months, but on the D day you’re feeling not so good… We’ve thought of you and set up “shortcuts”
  • Tracks with bascule 1 and bascule 2 -> depending on when you pass these intersections, you’ll be redirected to a new, shorter route called “bascule”. If you cross the finish line (after passing through the following time gates) you will be a “finisher” with a time penalty.

Timetable

Race hours and opening of sas

Praticals informations :

  • We differentiate between waves and SAS :
    – A starting wave corresponds to a starting time.
    – For each wave, there may be 1 or 2 SAS to distribute the runners within the starting wave according to their level, and make the starts more fluid.
  • The SAS are set up automatically by our timing software, based on your performance index 1 month before the event.
  • Your race time will start when you cross the start line.
  • Time barriers are calculated on the start time of the last wave.
