Xavier Jourson’s Big Challenge: To Compete in the Norseman Xtreme Triathlon!

Xavier Jourson is a former rugby player in France who now lives in Quebec and trains in the three disciplines of triathlon to take up an impressive sporting challenge: compete in the Norseman Xtreme Triathlon in Norway, which many consider to be the most extreme triathlon in the world!

The Action Sport Physio network has joined forces with the athlete to support him in his training and throughout his great adventure.

The athlete told us: “Very early on, I realized how demanding the race was and how difficult the Norseman was. My first thought was to want to be followed by an equipped medical sports structure, also capable of understanding my realities on the ground. By being followed within Action Sport Physio clinics, I can be sure that I am surrounded by seasoned professionals, who can bring me to optimal conditions during my transition. I am honored by the trust placed in me. I invite you to follow me on this crazy adventure!”

When Xavier approached our network, his story inspired us and we are very happy to get involved in this major project as an official physiotherapy partner. We will provide Xavier with the best physiotherapy services so that he can achieve this incredible goal. We will also work with him to create content for our audiences and promote his journey through our social networks and clinics.
