Come and bring us your good humor by joining the organizing team!
Your participation is essential to the success of this event. Throughout these two days of nature racing in the Esterel mountains, more than 150 people are needed to give the 1,100 trail runners an unforgettable moment on the magnificent TBA course.
Becoming a volunteer means experiencing a major event in the Riviera and French sports landscape from the inside. Becoming a volunteer means being able to say "I was there", and living together an exceptional human adventure.
