National Kandersteg O-Event / 4.Biofarm
Cup
03.09.2006

A challenging 2000mt, 2 day race on the
mountains of Oeschinen and Sunnbüel in Kandersteg, Switzerland. On
the first day we took the cable car to the race area from 1200mt. I
didn’t have enough time to warm up before the race started. The
terrain was very rough with sharp rocks boulders and difficult to
run on. I sprained my ankle during the race and had to bandage it on
the second day. I lost time on many of the targets because the maps
were too detailed and I had to use a magnifying glass to be able to
read it. I got accustomed to the rocky terrain by the second day but
this is something that requires a lot of advanced preparation.

Championnats de France
27.08.2006

A 5 day national race in Lorraine region
of Nancy, France. The forest is flat and there are lots of fields,
trails and lakes. I missed the bike race during the day and the
oritenteering race at night on the first day. On the other days I
was 9th in the middle distance and on the speed course I
was not able to concentrate on the map for the first target and got
discouraging results: I was 106th. I was 12th
on the long course but I was tired from the previous day. There were
30 targets along a 20km course and I was 43rd in this
race. I want to thank the Csm Rillieux La Pape Club for providing
transportation and a place to stay during the race.

5 - Tage Berglauf Cup
18.08.2006

5 day hill race in Switzerland’s Zurich
Canton. There were races on the different hills of Zurich with
distances ranging from 4-5km and the climb ranging from 800-1300mt.
I was not able to participate in the first day of the race because I
found out too late about the race. On the first day I started out
fast and my pulse reached 195 on the 3rd km where there
was a constant upward incline and I had to slow down. On the other
days I was able to run more efficiently with an average heart rate
of 185 and a max of 193. There were 375 participants and after
finishing four days of the race I was 42nd.
