  LE TOUR DU MARTEAU! (EASTER WEEKEND)
Le Tour du Marteau! is a (tough) weekend long training camp open to GHO/Dontgetlost Adventure Running Adventure Card holders and COF HPP members only. All training sessions will have a navigation component. The objective of this weekend is to have fun while doing some very hard training. All participants may be responsible for hanging/picking-up some checkpoint flags for one of the training exercises.
The 2012 Tour will not include the 'tour format' (i.e., no time taking) but will include the Salomon Dontgetlost Giants Rib Raid on Saturday. HPP members should register for that race separately by contacting This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it .
