Tour de France 14 July, Bastille Day ; Culoz to Col du Grand Colombier via the Lacets

2016 was the last time I climbed (ran) the Lacets skyward from Culoz to Col du Grand Colombier. Great views down to the valley below where the fruit I ate before the run were grown. It was very hot in the valley. I spent a fortnight running up mountains from Mont Ventoux to Chamonix, 120-130km/week. It should be a great tussle this evening on the TV.

I ran 80 minutes just before the weather arrived. Tassie Masters Athletics posted this video from the Australian Masters Athletics Championships mixed XC race a few days ago on their Youtube site. A great memory from such a great event.
