Just a few photos of the race of both Laurence and myself:
Saturday - 14km race
This is the start of the 14km race. Notice the patches of blue sky and sunshine.

Photo taken in the second half of the course and Gérald is just out of shot working his way back up to us.
Here he comes - looking determined!
Photo taken about 400m from the finish and I'm chasing down a guy about 20m in front. Fastest sprint finish ever from me.
Guy I've passed is just out of shot to the right (he took the last corner wide!). Holding down the sprint to cross the finish line.
Gérald sprinting in too having just overtaken a couple of runners to finish 2 places after me.
Sunday - 58km race
Blue skies have completely disappeared and we're sheltering under the refreshment tent before the start. Photographer is standing outside in the rain hence the raindrops visible in the shot.
This photo is taken on the ridge before the first feeding station at about 16km. Already feeling tired and wet.
Conditions have worsened here for the photo of Laurence and the weather is wetter than ever. She's still looking fresh though.
Photo towards the end of the race at 53.5km. Just looking to end the agony now.
