FKT: Talia Chevassus - Le P’tit Train du Nord, (QC, Canada) - 2025-06-29

I ran the P'tit train du Nord, a multisport path going from Mont-Laurier to St-Jerome in the Laurentians the region where I grew up. It was my biggest challenge yet and as expected felt mentally and physically hard for most of it. Over 34 hours and 53 minutes, there were highs, lows, and constant uncertainty. You never really know if everything you’ve poured into it will be worth it until you’re close to the end. I had my partner and my mom arrived at Km 50 who were crewing me, meeting every about 10Km to resupply food, water, bug spray, and cheering. One of them often came on a bike for the last part of the segment. There were 2 detours on the route due to construction. It was an amazing experience.
