race around our lac

  
       


Trail du Magnoac....runs of 8, 14 and 26 km, taking in the lake, there are different coloured spray arrows, three to be precise for the different routes round the town and countryside. It was a fantastic morning and although it looks hot, a very nice day without being blistering hot. It's nice to have fun events in the town, lots of people turned up for the event and a good fifty odd people participated. The event was opened by our mayor, Bernard verdier and probably ended in Joe's bar, i say probably as sadly we had to slink off to a prior engagement before it all finished.
