Xtrem Triathlon is, by its very nature, an extreme race. Extreme for the difficulty of the course, extreme for the psychological challenges involved, extreme because the preparation it demands is tougher than the race itself.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"329\" data-end=\"739\">Those who choose to take on the Xtrem distance will experience a physical and mental <strong data-start=\"414\" data-end=\"425\">JOURNEY<\/strong> throughout the many hours of racing. All of this unfolds within a territory that stretches like a ribbon of raw silk from Lake Iseo to Passo Paradiso. At center stage is Val Camonica, rich in ancient history and sporting heritage, with legendary cycling passes that have entered myth: the Mortirolo and the Gavia.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"741\" data-end=\"943\">The pre-race base is <strong data-start=\"762\" data-end=\"770\">Iseo<\/strong>, a charming town nestled on the Brescia side of the lake. From the day before the race, this is where the registration office and the first Transition Area will be located.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"945\" data-end=\"1130\">The start is at <strong data-start=\"961\" data-end=\"974\">4:00 a.m.<\/strong>, in the darkness of the night, from the opposite shore of Lake Iseo. The swim covers <strong data-start=\"1060\" data-end=\"1070\">3.8 km<\/strong> and is a true <strong data-start=\"1085\" data-end=\"1108\">open-water crossing<\/strong>, from shore to shore.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1132\" data-end=\"1472\">On the <strong data-start=\"1139\" data-end=\"1147\">bike<\/strong>, over <strong data-start=\"1154\" data-end=\"1164\">180 km<\/strong>, athletes ride the entire Val Camonica, climbing the Aprica Pass, the Mortirolo Pass (from the less demanding side), and the infamous Gavia Pass.<br data-start=\"1310\" data-end=\"1313\" \/>The second Transition Area is in <strong data-start=\"1346\" data-end=\"1364\">Ponte di Legno<\/strong>, a renowned tourist resort in the upper valley.
