The website seems to be in French only, but no worries! You only need to be remotely familiar with a few simple terms in order to follow the race:
- Accueil = Welcome page, no info here.
- La Boucle = the whole 110 km loop (357 runners, including yours truly).
- La Traversée = the last 61 km of the course (693 runners).
- Tableau passages = charts with columns for ranking, bib, name, category, and all the control points.
- Fiches Coureurs = Search for a competitor.
- Classement = Ranking by category etc.
- Tête Course = Race leaders.
- Infos pts contrôles = Checkpoint information.
There are a few important cutoffs to be cleared along La Boucle (all times are Swiss):
- Sembrancher (26.65 km) by 11:30 (AM) Saturday - 6:30 h from start.
- La Fouly (48.38 km) by 17:00 (5 PM) Saturday - 12:00 h from start.
- Bourg St Pierre (76.41 km) by 2:00 (AM) Sunday - 21:00 h from start.
- Lourtier (98.85 km) by 9:00 (AM) Sunday - 28:00 h from start.
- Finish in Verbier (110.54 km) by 13:00 (1 PM) Sunday - 32:00 h from start.
Bon courage!
