españolWelcome
The idea of doing the Patagonian Triathlon Expedition emerged on one
side, of the enchantment that Patagonia, with its incomparable beauty
and vast nature, poured over each of us, members of this project. On
the other side, also born of the passion of our team for extreme
sports and outdoor activities who, with the backing of a major
background and experience, plus a hard physical and mental
preparation, take the challenge and commitment that a venture like
this requires.
This website is only one of the pieces of this dream of ours. It is
intended to share this experience with you, to show the beauty of the
place where it is carried out and to reveal the changes Patagonia has
undergone.
Thanks for joining us!

Stage III and Patagonian Triathlon completed!
Last week Antek completed the last part of his expedition.
Although this part of the expedition started in Punta Arenas with delays there were no adjustments made to the route. The traverse on kayak through Cordillera Darwin followed the planned course.
In San Isidro region Antek met two Argentinian kayakers - Juan and Francisco - who joined him. Together they circled Monte Sarmiento and crossed Cordillera Darwin to The Beagle Canal. The 5-day traverse took them through rivers, dense forests, swamps and rocks.
Sea conditions were very hard, strong winds, cold and rain didn't abate at all, even for a second. High waves and strong sea currents were making navigation hard and challenging. The tents and camping equipment were completely soaked due to never-ending rains and swamps.
None of that allowed for comfortable rest.
Half way through The Beagle Canal Antek said farewell to his Argentinian companions and headed by himself only to Puerto Williams where his kayaking, after more then three weeks, ended.
Since the physical challenge Triatlon Patagonico
implies is enormous, the team has made a commitment to undertake an
arduous training that will increase the likelihood of success in this
dream.
However, the physical preparation, though essential, it is not the only
requirement of a project like this one. Our aspirations to success
also depends on having other resources such as equipment, food and
transportation.That is why we feel the need to seek support. If you are interested in
being part of this dream please contact us. In gratitude, we offer presence on every page of this website, both of
your logo and links to your own website, to bear your corporate image
in our equipment and make it appear on the photos and videos we will
produce and show in exhibitions. Also, for those who will support us
with equipment, we promise to give reviews of the performance
that the product has had during the expedition, here on the website
and on the articles we will publish in magazines, newspapers, radio
and television.
We appreciate your support.
