GBUltra Chester50

Published:

First ultra Marathon of the year. We are mid-March, weather is nice; cold but sunny. For this year I have chosen a race not to far from my place: Chester. This is part of the GBUltra serie and it is a 50 miles, without much climbing.

Rat Race The Wall: My first 100k+!

Published:

That’s the big one! It arrived! My first 100k! And also my Ultra #10. For this race I am not alone! Ola, my wife (<3) is following the race with a car and will be there at aid stations, and my friend (and former colleague/Boss) Andrea, a German Astronomer leaving in Chile (where I used to work before) has decided to join me for this race. As I am quite scared of the 100k bar I am very happy to have someone running with me!

Dig Deep 30M: My First DNF!

Published:

End of august, not much training during the summer but it is a local race so I wanted to do it (third time I enter the race, so I know it!). It litteraly starts 15minutes from my place. Coincidentally this is also the day after I moved from one appartment to a new one. Which was a bad idea…

Here we are! Last race of the year, and by far my favorite! What not to like, in my hometown (Saint-Etienne, France; so a good chance to see the family!) and a start in the middle of the night!

This talk was done in collaboration with Neil Shephard and delivered at RSECon25. It presents the call for proposals that we have created in Sheffield and that offers RSE time to the research community.
