The flagship race, known as <\/span><b>&#8220;Le Monstre&#8221;<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, features nearly 5,000 metres of elevation gain and is regularly described as one of the toughest trail races in \u00cele-de-France. <\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-794cf06 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"794cf06\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">What makes it unique\n<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0aa7469 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"0aa7469\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unlike many trail races that rely on a few long climbs, Les 40 Bosses is all about repetition.
