The course climbs into the Maresme hills, crosses the streets of Santa Susanna and finishes on the beach: trails through the pines, sandbags and obstacles on Mediterranean sand. The start is in the Parc del Colomer.

Saturday is Beast day (Elite at 9:00) with the Sprint in the afternoon; Sunday has the National Series Super and another Sprint. Provisional schedule.

Racing in Santa Susanna is a trip, not just a race

The race lasts from one to several hours; the weekend, two or three days on the Maresme coast. Sleeping near the beach, eating well between the Beast and the Super and getting home without driving is what makes the trip.

Our packs take care of every one of those pieces, so your only worry is the next obstacle.
