BBQ Stakes 6km Hilly XC ; Tour de France Ile dÓleron Ile de Re

Cool drizzle at BBQ Stakes low key hilly 6km XC handicap. I started out of group running some of the hills solid and all of the down hills easy. 4km warm up and 1km warm down made it 11km for the day. Next set on Thursday afternoon 5 x 500m strides. Saturday afternoon ACT Masters 8km XC Championships.

Last evening Tour de France made it's way from Ile DÓleron to Ile de Re. Lots of memories from 2011 having stayed in the region for a week. Highlight of course was a run along the beach with views of Fort Boyard from the famous TV show.
