La UVU Jungle Marathon 2014 si svolgerà dal 2 all'11 ottobre in Brasile nel cuore della Tapajos National Forest (anche se in altre edizioni il teatro della competizione è stato la foresta vietnamita).
Ci si potrà cimentare sulle distanze di 42 km, 122 km o 254 km, in ambiente ostile, con temperature elevate ed umide che raggiungeranno i 40°, con trattida percorrere nel cuore della foresta equatoriale e l'attraversamento di corsi d'acqua popolati da caimani.
La gara lunga sulla distanza di 254 km è suddivisa in 6 tappe.
Una sfida appassionante, un modo per vivere sportivamente l'avventura.
