Ray Zahab's Family Running Routes

Canadian endurance athlete Ray Zahab has run 17,000km in extreme temperatures, crossing the Arctic, Siberian desert and South Pole unsupported. He was the first person to run the length of the “driest desert on Earth”, the Atacama Desert in northern Chile, solo.

But Ray can't be breaking World Records on exciting expeditions all the time.

Based in Quebec, Ray enjoys spending time with his family too. With two athletic daughters, they spend quality time together trail running, fastpacking, Nordic skiing, snowshoeing... you name it and they've probably got a favourite trail for it!

This guidebook shares some of Ray's favourite routes in Gatineau Park, Parc Montagne du Diable and Mont Morios. We think long-distance might run in the family...
