Trailwalker is a charity challenge organised by Oxfam Intermon to raise funds for a good cause: to fight poverty and hunger around the world. The event is done in teams of four people, who must start and finish together, doing a 100-kilometre trek in no more than 32 hours. Anyone interested can join in on this challenge, which can even be done walking, which is hugely satisfying on a personal level.

On 16 April, Girona hosted the 6th edition of the Trailwalker event in our country, and the "100 km, 4 people, 1 cause", as its slogan goes, was a resounding success.

The Asepeyo team included Ricard (paraplegic, Barcelona), who completed this gruelling challenge with his wheelchair and BATEC HYBRID handbike in 21 hours and 51 minutes. An unforgettable experience full of great moments.

Last year, Fran (quadriplegic, Jerez), Miguel (paraplegic, Barcelona) and Andrés (paraplegic, Baena), all equipped with our handbikes, completed Trailwalker 2015 in 22 hours and 50 minutes.
