Last Saturday was my third participation to the Trans'authie race. Unfortunately it wasn't a good one for me; I didn't slept enough the last nights and so I had some difficulties finding energy; moreover I didn't get good feelings while running.
Anyway, it was a very sunny weather, quite good for crossing the river. The track has changed again: perhaps a little less mud but more sand dunes.
My time, 01:16:57, seems good to me despite my bad feelings. The announced distance is approximately of 15km, but it always depends on the track they can find across the Authie bay; it would be interesting to get results from a GPS.
Like on others races, you can get a massage at the end, thanks to the physical therapist school from Berck, always a great pleasure.
Some numbers:
rank: 44/161 finishers (42th men)
time: 01:16:57
average speed: 11,70 km/h
NB: the event was used to be in August, but since this year, it should be around May-June; I don't know why. Probably that it will take some time to get as much participants as the previous years.
