I attended October 31, 2010 at the inaugural Festival Hospital in Nant (12), the worthy successor to the trail of the Templars who relocates to Millau. Program D 75km 3977 m in the foothills of the Causse du Larzac and Cevennes.
The Profile suggests the trail to keep some energy for the last 10 kilometers announce two beautiful bumps. Weather conditions are hellish, a ubiquitous rain makes the trail very muddy.
258 trailers at the start, 197 to the finish. After starting in the midfield, I go back a large number of competitors before placing me in 10th position with km55 8min ahead of the 11th and 3min delay on 8-9th. Towards the KM60 on top of the rise of St. Sulpice, 4 riders turned back and announce to me that the race is neutralized because of the terrain was too dangerous. Only the top 5 were able to continue.
I feel like reliving the cancellation of the UTMB two months earlier!
Volunteers are working hard to find suitable alternatives to rally Cantobre. But after more than 15min-20min break the morale is gone. The rankings do not want to say from this moment ... The change of course is transparent to the trailers behind us ... but not for the first 25 or so. I walk on the pavement a little disgusted with my companions. I take my time to reach the finish and finished in 9:40.
