A volunteer-led initiative, La Racine d’Or aims to celebrate artistic creations and human achievements within our trail running community.

The Vieille Branche — or Lifetime Achievement Award — was presented to him in recognition of his exceptional contribution and long-standing commitment to the trail community.

This edition of the gala was organized by a dedicated volunteer committee made up of:

Catherine Campbell
Nicolas Fréret
Mélodie Gilbert
Julien Lachance
Philip Rouleau
Richard Turgeon
Yannick Vézina

Rumor has it, the roots of the Vieille Branche will keep growing for decades to come…!
