Blueprints For A Quarter Pipe

June 2011 - Raid Golfe du Morbihan

The die is cast. With the help of my friend Francioso Mark, and his cell phone, I finally managed to successfully enroll in the raid.
What is this? A long trail (86/88 km, depending on the readings) that takes place largely at night.
Why so early? Limited.
Why did I choose? I have never seen the UK, and I think a wonderful occasion. But there's more.
It runs mostly at night, one of the longest nights of the year (25/26 June) and far north: it will be wonderful, I'm going to enjoy the sunset and sunrise, - starting at 15 and twenty hours time to finish everything. A spectacle of lights, I guess.
It runs into the sea, mostly on dirt roads. From the photos and videos I've seen online I see path, reeds, sand, water passes in almost a dreamlike landscape. A video on YouTube is titled "Taking the sea." Here, on the sand after the marathon last February, I intrippato with sea and sand, beautiful, fun and exciting.
has long wanted to try a long trail, I thought about 100km: This won me over. A challenge that I want to do surrounded by nature, trying to trust my capabilities, my preparation and my gear (backpack for the semi-self-sufficiency or refreshment, but a few.)
My next month's trail, step by step, will be very focused on this goal. Do not you think that this picture proves that it's worth it?
On the advice and requests to Antonio, here are some links
