orienteering race 1:00:00 [4]
Championnats de France des Clubs
Club relay champs, over 1300 present (?)
Out running in the rain after not a whole lot of sleep (up at 5:20 ughh), forest un peu sale, nobody to run against... tried hard to keep moving. made a couple of 1min mistakes... had some trouble interpreting the map on the very gentle slopes... charbonnières were hard (for me) to spot... not that the map was substandard or anything, I just found it tough...
team (Balise 77) didn't do too bad considering... 22nd out of 35 maybe... apart from Hugues who succeeded in missing the mass start everyone seems to have had solid runs, esp Beaudoin on the last leg... spare a thought for Alice (D18/D16?) who didn't really want to come anyway and then had to run in the rain and the mud in a craddy forest without O-shoes and came back covered in mud and not too happy... la pauvre
