Vatan : 4 x 2 minutes
An early morning run in Vatan. Ran for an hour surrounded by sunflowers and wheat. The roads were narrow and almost completely traffic free. Found an undulating straight section and ran as hard as I could four times (which took 2 minutes), only allowed less than 1 minute recovery.
At the airport now so the run will be from here, an easy 30 minutes or so after watching the time trial. The fight for minor placings with the French in contention will be something worth watching.
Yesterday in Bergerac was full of thunderstorms. We decided to make pique nique in the car. The caravan pass made it just in time for the fourth or fifth storm. It was just plain raining when the riders passed. Strangely it cleared up as soon as the race was over.
We lingered in Perigueux cleaning the car and then discovered they would close the freeway entry/exit for the whole of today. We scouted the finish and then decided to abandon the tour for good and go to the airport, staying overnight car style in a rest stop.
