ROUND 3 - DYNAFIT SKI TOURING COURCHEVEL - 22 December 2010

More and more people at the start.

52 competitors climbed the 500 m of elevation gain and the 3.2 km distance separating Le Praz from Courchevel 1850.

For this third edition, the records were broken. William Bon Mardion, 2nd in the Pierra Menta 2010, beat the record with a time of 24min33s. This record had until then been held by Alexandre Pellicier, French team champion, who finished this time in 2nd place in 24min54s ahead of Tony Sbalbi, French vertical climb champion (25min09s).

These three athletes had the surprise of being welcomed under the finish arch by the sports journalist Nelson Monfort.

Among the women, Sandrine Favre improved her own record with a time of 32min27s ahead of Gaëlle Martin in 34min05s and Claudine Trecourt in 37min44s.
