Get Moving for the Cause
This coming May, the 16th edition of the Leucan Ultramarathon will run through the magnificent landscape of the Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean region. The Ultramarathon is more than a mere sporting event; it is an emotion-filled community adventure, an extraordinary personal challenge and, above all, a demonstration of solidarity with children with cancer and their families. From its modest beginnings, the event has grown into an essential pillar of support for the Association in this beautiful region.
Founded by running enthusiasts, the Leucan Ultramarathon will be celebrating its 16th edition with as much energy as ever. Thanks to the commitment of the organizing committee, which includes Dave McMullen, Dave Bard, Pascal Morin, and Donald Dubois, the event continues to grow as its impact increases year after year, ensuring its increasing popularity.
This year, we invite you to take on a personal challenge tailored to your level of fitness, even if you are recovering from an injury. Whether you are an experienced runner, an enthusiastic beginner, young or old, on your own or part of a group, the Ultramarathon gives you the opportunity to create your own challenge. Please join us for these thrilling moments and support a cause that is dear to our hearts while enjoying an unforgettable experience.
