The path of the sun
Hi everyone,
this Sunday, February 7, I was initially Race the Sun, a half marathon between Nice and Monaco.
Cosy, 1200 participants, pleasant temperatures, blue skies, what else!
waking at 7:30 ... ok, I'm not up, I wake up like a flower to 8:40 Farewell breakfast and warm up towards the race as quickly as possible, I take my keys, water bottle, 2 gels and AC part!
We were a small band of EDHEC initially, Floriane, Xavier, Arnaud, Alexis, Fabian and me. I also found jean luc, a friend traileurs down from Paris for the occasion. We ended immediately after the start and ran the 3 / 4 of the race together.
For the route of the race, port Nice, Villefranche, St. Jean, Beaulieu, Eze sur mer, Cap d'Ail, Monaco, all this by the sea, beautiful scenery, volunteers and spectators at the top, a semi 3 stars! at a distance, 21km, 200 D +, fairly hard in the final climb.
Time and rank: Ben
: 1hr 26min 40sec, 35th SEM
Alexis: 1hr 28min 30sec, 44 HE Mr. Jean Luc

Bulk ... UTMB, Trail Blanch Ax les Thermes and Raids
A lil Tote post to tell you first of all, Flo, Ben and I have seen our entries to the UTMB confirmed after the draw. So we will be starting late August 2010 in Chamonix for what is regarded today as one of the ultras of reference in the world. This will be a special occasion for us to overcome to experience the incredible adventure that is the Tour du Mont Blanc in a single step ... A place of legend, 3 countries, over 2000 runners ... It remains only to train!
also Flo and I were this Sunday, January 24 at the Trail Blanch Ax les Thermes, Ariège for what should be our first year with Ultra 50km and 2750m of elevation gain in the snow .. . Alas, the weather and the risk of avalanches have forced organizers to help out the course, including a 35 km loop done twice and 2100m of elevation gain. The difficulty was there at the altitude but the scenery was the blow a bit disappointing. Majority of the forest instead of a beautiful valley ridges initially planned. Note, however, a very steep descent in the powder rather excellent opportunity to jump like a kid without fear of getting hurt and to bobsleigh in some places or the runners had created a real track in the middle of the powder. In the end, Flo was forced to abandon 10 km before the end because of severe pain in the knee. For my part, I took the sixty th place in 5:19 minutes on 233 participants. I'm not particularly happy with my ranking, but it was the first race of the year. I hope to do better on the next races. Nevertheless, despite these annoyances, it was a pleasure to return to the path of nature after the race several months without competition!
To those who doubted, the year is well and truly launched:)

News Laurence Ladies and Rames
is now over 34 days and that Laurence Rames Dames de la Gomera are parties to join the Caribbean to the rowing ... They left today February 7, 2010 at 19:05 (time of last GPS surveys) 1325 nautical miles to go (as the crow flies, assuming therefore that it would continue its path). Everything to play for them, but then we can already now salute their incredible performance with the 4th place. I have personally advanced their several times a day by the bais of race site as well as their blog and I must say that this adventure is simply thrilling. The worst of the race (I think around 20 January), Rames Women have held the 12 or 13th. Since then they have only advance in rank, clawing at each GPS reading one or more square nautical miles on their competitor. Their VMG (an indicator which takes into account ocean course and speed, I refer you to the definition on Wikipedia) is really impressive and sometimes the most important among all competitors. I wonder every day how they manage to maintain such growth.
At this rate, the podium is not inaccessible, though it must be remembered, there is still quite a distance and that many things can happen. The team at QBE Insurance Challenger consists of two 26 year old british now 66 miles ahead of Rames ladies. They showed up at last found a VMG of 2.3 against 2.14 for the ladies but Rames knowing that the previous statement, at 13h02, the Ladies Reams had the largest increase, nothing is impossible. The team in second position, Karukera is a team of two French 42 and 47 years (coccorico?). They showed an advance of only 9 nautical miles on the third, same as what is the second option. The first however is unlikely to be dethroned from his place with still 257 miles ahead of the second. His performance is even more impressive than DD (Insure & Go) evolves on its own, kudos to him.
much for my small point, I encourage you to go for a ride on their blog to read in detail the story of this adventure and leave a message of encouragement, really worth the trip! Courage and congratulations to Rames Ladies!
