The report is late, but we were lost because of the wolf ... ... ... .... ! ! !
Talk about an adventure!

With Philip and Cecilia, we moved to a stand at the City Clerks for racing Ludo le fou.
In the field around the room, the riders arrive and settle, tents sprout like mushrooms. It's a beautiful day.
calm atmosphere in the room where 4 stands share the questions of the riders. Activities are planned for kids is great (make-up, racing games, ....)

Then comes the hour of departure for the 1st race the maratrail. A big wolf hanging from a crane gesticulating to comment on his ordeal. We are preparing, in our turn to be on the line of 18kms. HOU HOU HOU, we were not afraid of the wolf!

It should be well hidden on Saturday evening when the runners took off directly into the forest, a journey punctuated by hard haystack (first hurdle), a small narrow bridge where you have to go one by one, or else ... plop! placards, puppets, funny little words to pass the test ....
Upon arrival, another surprise awaits us, and more encouragement of the spectators and the voice of Philip which surpasses all noise (I heard it before seeing it!): you must climb over stacks of hay! Well, just take the right call of the foot and it passed, yet one would think that with the miles in the legs, we do not happen, well think again!
I must go and as Cecile and Philip stayed for the evening, I let the hand ...

well deserved shower, I joined Philip to continue to encourage the runners last maratrail arriving very tired at nightfall.
Aperitif and dinner direction head to head (you'll notice the chance) with our MacGyver! Learn a little tense who will have to speak on the podium, I want to write some notes.
22h, the awards began. On this occasion we take the opportunity to provide a common gift (Marathon de Cheverny and Maratrail On the Trail of the Wolf) to all riders who participated in both races.
A beautiful fireworks display to end the evening and hop back to Blois.
Thanks to Ludo and his team for the hospitality we have reserved. Veronica & Cecil

Europe Race / Odysséa - June 21 at Marathon Tours

Impressions

Run: you start to run for various reasons: when they stop smoking, we want to do a little sport to overcome .. .. there are a thousand and one reasons to begin. Once we started we felt a real desire to continue to train. Soon we run for ourselves, by necessity, and this need becomes a game that requires specific training because it sets goals. All are different depending on their personalities and abilities but all are commendable. Small or large projects, this is what leads each rider!!

However, yesterday some ASJistes ran differently: not only to "make time" but for a cause: the fight against breast cancer
Since 2004 the race has become Europe's support of the championships of France 10 km road at the initiative of the Athletics Club of the A3 T who wanted to animate the neighborhood north of Tours. He now joins a charity. The association Odysséa raises funds for the fight against breast cancer. All the fruit for registration is given to the association Odysséa which redistributes the funds to two local associations.
appointment toll of Blois and Tours to start North. We're 9 to participate in the walk and Chantal strafe us the option of the race.

A beautiful sun will accompany us throughout the journey. 1 600 people attend all the races and walking. The pink T-shirts abound. Everybody does not play the game and it's a shame this type of racing because it is still a strong image to see all these people dressed in pink. Mark and Ludo Thierry rave a bit about it.


The route was by cons really nothing special (two loops of 5 km in urban areas), it should be booster internally but there are people and especially on court for a cause.
In my case I am running exchange group: it is nice though still a little support as pace for me. After 6 km, I'm already exploded and give my Mp3 to finish the race. To Each His Own "doping". The music helps me work out, allows me to escape particularly to overtake me when the race becomes difficult. Corine Cecile, Nathalie, Marc, Thierry, Anne, Veronica meanwhile chattering quietly.
It's always a bit disconcerting to run with good!! They seem to walk around while I "pedal." In the meantime I appreciate the gesture and then frankly it will make them a good slagging!

The gesture is in the image of the club! Everyone has a place despite the different levels and this is important. The race is a sport - passion that speaks at the option of shopping trips and solitary or in groups.




We finish together on the finish line is nice to achieve more. A little disappointed to go to 1 h 00'12''good but those 12 seconds are the price of security can be! And yesterday the weather was particularly high, suspended. A note that Ludo still finished the race in 42 minutes and ......

On arrival a small gym workout and then we return happy to have made a trip a little less personal.

We hope the event will raise enough funds to help more women will get through this stage of life and that screening can be done earlier and earlier. This will allow the use of lighter treatments to bear for patients and their families. 8500 euro was raised for this second edition.
Until that pink walkabout will remain a positive moment for all.
