Le 100 miles

There are three ultra trails taking place this weekend, Le 100 miles, 170 kilometrers with 9,800 meters of ascent, La Grand Traversée, 95 kilometres with 5,400 metres of ascent and La Traversée, 55 kilometres with 3,200 metres of ascent. The first race set off at 10 am yesterday. The Travesée set off from the village at 8 am this morning. Spare a thought for Mohammed, still smiling after 29 hours with approximately another 80 kilometres to go. The winner has already finished in just over 24 hours. It makes me tired just thinking about it.
