The curtain falls on the 14th edition of TORX® after it thrilled, excited, took the breath away, crowded the Aosta Valley trail with athletes, enthusiasts, friends, family, fans, volunteers for ten days.
An epic race, a giant party, one thousand and one stories to tell, an experience to live and to remember for many months.

The numbers
More than 2500 registered athletes from 80 nations at the starts of Courmayeur, Gressoney-Saint-Jean and Saint-Rhémy-en-Bosses, a record of starters for TOR330 – Tor des Géants® – for the first time above the quota of 1000 – a total of 1302 finishers (85 for TOR450, 621 for TOR330, 171 for TOR130, 425 for TOR30), three records beaten: by a few minutes by Franco Collé in TOR330, by a couple of hours by Daniel Jung in TOR30, by almost 10 hours by Sébastien Raichon in TOR450.
Numbers that are only the tip of the iceberg of an event which involves an entire region, Aosta Valley, and a great amount of people in the different fields, from safety to assistance, from logistics to refreshments, from organization to communication, from race direction to tracking and entertainment at the start and finish line.
2500 VolonTOR, 16 guides, 26 doctors and 40 nurses in different shifts, almost one hundred MassaggiaTOR, tons of food, thousands of flags along the route, 4 speakers in 3 languages, almost 100.000 photos, 61 journalists and international operators, 13 press releases and about 200 posts on Facebook and Instagram since the beginning of the race, 2.5 millions pages visited, 240 hours of videos on the new platform TORX® LIVE between live, talks in studio, interviews on the field and highlights.
