The 3rd Stop of the 2023 Spartan Trail World Championship is around the corner so, let\u2019s talk a little about Maxi-Race.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Born in 2011, and hosted every year in the Medieval town of Annecy, Maxi Race du Lac d\u2019Annecy has become one of the main races in the European calendar. With 1200 runners registered for the inaugural edition, this event has been growing immensely year after year to the point of reaching almost 9000 registrations for the 2018 edition.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The race has a variety of courses to choose from: The 17k Short Race with amazing views of Annecy Lake and Mont Baron. The Marathon with its classic ascent of the Pas de l\u2019Aul. And the queen race, Maxi Race, with its 85k around the historic Tour du lac d\u2019Annecy traversing the summit of Semnoz, the Col de la Forclaz, Menthon-Saint-Bernard and Mont Veyrier. Also the Orienteering Club of Annecy organizes Orienteering races on the weekend.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
