My name is Simon-Pierre LeBlanc. I'll attempt the 105km "Traversée de Charlevoix" on Saturday June 18th starting at 6:00 AM. I'll do it fully supported with a crew and pacers all the way. The last known traverse was done in about 19 hours supported. My goal is to break the 15 hours mark. Wish me the best ! www.traverseedecharlevoix.qc.ca

I, Simon-Pierre LeBlanc, have completed the 105 km of the Traversée de Charlevoix included both secondary trails of mountains: Morios and La Noyée. The official time is 21 hours 17 minutes and 17 secondes. I used an Ambit 3 bu Suunto set to a 1 minute precision for it to last this long. My watch doesn't show full milage, unfortunately, because of precision loss. ![](https://www.dropbox.com/s/l1g1ii4xcj2dmgs/13510584_10209354643280079_1980320099_n.jpg?dl=0) To fully complete the Traversée you need to pass by the secondary trails, which I have done. Here's my GPS tracking. I have circled both mountains: ![](https://www.dropbox.com/s/5lvau0ufsiyn01v/13467266_10209720925119746_1629841794_o.jpg?dl=0) Here it is again but not circled: ![](https://www.dropbox.com/s/fosfkc30o6hf17d/13493287_10157143432285249_1047766273_o.jpg?dl=0) All previous athletes that I know of have completed only one or no secondary trails. There is one person (Michel Fortin) whom I think might have passed by them but finished in 23 hours and 22 minutes. Here's a article about him and Pierre-Étienne Vachon who has completed the Traversée in 19 hours or so but hasn't climbed Mount Morios. www.espaces.ca/articles/actualites/1638-24-heures-pour-traverser-charlevoix There is also three other guys, Nicolas Tremblay, Jean-Philippe Thibodeau and another person whom I don't know the name. They have completed the Traversée in 19 hours or so also without both secondary trails. Here's their map: ![](https://www.dropbox.com/s/atqu38gvvgxhv1x/13472131_10209720931519906_346515594_n.jpg?dl=0)
