It has already been almost six months that Laëtitia and Alexandra Moreau have been running around companies looking for sponsors. Objective: to complete the registration budget for their “Team Croq’Alex”, travel and equipment for the Femina Adventure Guadeloupe. “This is our first challenge,” emphasize the two sisters. The second will take place in November, nearly 7,000 km from here, where they will discover the tests that await them.
“They are day and night”
This includes trail running, sea kayaking, orientation, canyoning, swin and run, sea swimming and even ropes course. All in running mode. “Know what we hate,” they smile.

And, marked by the death of a loved one, the desire to communicate about Brugada syndrome. This heart disease is very little known and difficult to detect, characterized by syncope or sudden death, linked to tachycardias. “We launched an online fundraiser to finance an association,” she insists.
Alexandra, the thoughtful
The thoughtful one is Alexandra, 35 years old. An interior decorator, the Plérinaise has dabbled in the gym, tennis, bad, fitness, “but in the leisure version, competition is not my thing”. But she has been making up for it since last September, with crossfit and swimming. There’s no way she’s going to be a drag. “I entered Laëtitia’s challenge.
