The event in a few words

Are you familiar with backyards, ultra-trails, quirky challenges, or long-distance challenges? ๐Ÿฅต At Finishers, we offer many of these, but have you ever heard of the 24 Hours of the Wolf? ๐Ÿบ This event takes place in two unique locations: one in La Chapelle-en-Serval and the other in Morocco ๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡ฆ at M'Hamid El Ghizlane ๐Ÿ“. We're focusing on the one set in the stunning Moroccan landscape ๐Ÿœ๏ธ. Are you eager to know what the race is all about? ๐Ÿ‘Œ Letโ€™s not keep you waiting any longer. The concept is simple: run 4 km every hour for 24 hours ๐Ÿ˜ฑ. It may sound straightforward, but don't underestimate the challenge and physical demands it requires ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™€๏ธ. Believe it or not, few Finishers have completed the 24 Hours of the Wolf ๐Ÿ†. You control your pace, rhythm, and rest periods, with the sole goal of reaching the end. Naturally, you'll need to be in top physical shape, but mental preparedness is crucial too ๐Ÿง . In the final hours, when your legs beg for mercy ๐Ÿฆต, your mind will have to take over ๐Ÿค“. Join us in Morocco for this extraordinary experience, designed to feel like a vacation and make the challenge more bearable ๐Ÿคž. The location is fabulous, on the edge of the Sahara ๐Ÿซ, in the province of Zagora. Mโ€™Hamid El Ghizlane is a renowned starting point for desert excursions ๐Ÿ‘ฃ.

To participate, plan for a 4-day trip. You'll likely arrive at Ouarzazate Airport โœˆ๏ธ, and a bus will transport you to the bivouac site ๐Ÿ•๏ธ (a bit of camping never hurt anyone). On the second day, you'll start your day with breakfast, perfect to fuel the next 24 hours! โณ As expected, it's time to lace up your running shoes and begin the first 4 km. The rest is up to you ๐Ÿƒ. Whether you finish victoriously or not, the following day is all about relaxation. Enjoy breakfast ๐Ÿฝ๏ธ, a massage and wellness workshop ๐Ÿง–โ€โ™€๏ธ, followed by a hearty dinner and a good sleep! ๐Ÿ˜ด On the final day, like the first, the 24 Hours of the Wolf team will take you back to the airport, leaving you with unforgettable memories ๐Ÿคฉ.

If you'd like to extend your stay, it's the perfect opportunity. After all, youโ€™ve earned it, haven't you? ๐Ÿ˜‰ Start with a desert tourโ€”it's the right time and place. This vast, endless terrain is an ideal way to unwind after all your hard efforts and sweat ๐Ÿ˜Œ. If you opt to return to Ouarzazate ๐Ÿค  (another fantastic choice), prepare to be amazed! ๐Ÿ‘€ This city, with its stunning red-orange stone buildings, resembles a true oasis ๐ŸŒด. Explore the markets, the craftsmanship ๐Ÿบ, and everything the city offers! Your stay in Morocco could be an unforgettable experience โšก.

So, are you ready to howl like a wolf or claim victory? ๐Ÿ”ฅ

4 reasons to join this race

A Challenge That Meets Your Expectations ๐Ÿ’ก
Sure, it's a challenge, and while 4 km every hour might not seem too daunting at first, add the 24-hour aspect and everything changes! ๐Ÿฅต You'll get precious minutes to rest each time, but you'll need endurance both physically and mentally, because 24 hours are indeed 24 hours! ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™‚๏ธ
In Morocco No Less โœˆ๏ธ
Morocco is always a wonderful surprise, and let's face it, it wouldn't be the same if it were held elsewhere. The country's charm, the landscapes, the people you'll meetโ€”it's a true privilege to participate in the 24h du Loup there ๐Ÿ˜Œ.
An Impeccable Organization ๐Ÿ‘‘
Yes, the event needs to be well-organized for you to enjoy it to the fullest, and you're in luck because you're in the right place ๐Ÿ˜‰. A security and medical team will be present throughout the race to assist you. Plus, over the course of the four days, you'll be pampered with delicious meals, breakfasts, massages, and relaxation. It's almost like a vacation in itself ๐Ÿ˜‡.
A French Edition ๐ŸŽฝ
If you enjoyed the Moroccan edition (and we donโ€™t doubt you did ๐Ÿ’ช), or if you didnโ€™t manage to complete the challenge (it happens!), you can try again in October during the 24h du Loup in France. The competition awaits you in La Chapelle-en-Serval to push your limits! โœŒ๏ธ
