A race of 22 km with 1280 meters of positive altitude change. 504 people attended, maximum number authorised to preserve the site.  Six athletes make up the Nike City Sport Team, three boys and three girls. The girls made an excellent performance, placing Isabelle Lebreton at the top spot, a 4th place achieved by Frédérique Julian and a 6th place for Elisabeth Legros. Bertrand Vienne was running with the team throughout the race. The girls finished in a 1st place as a team. In the boys team a 3rd place was gained by the young and promising 24 year old, Julien Hoareau, and an 11th place by Jean-Louis Robert 1st veteran, who came back into competition after 6 months break.

 

The race went very well, being one of the main mountain races held in Reunion Island.
