Thank you very much for your interest and your support!

The season is finally over!
The season is over! And some of the athletes already took off to some weeks of holidays (Sébastien, Jason), others had to start their student life already the morning after the French Championships with some courses at uni or a work experience (Wilfried, Nicolas). However, for everyone, April rests a month without training, fully dedicated to recovery - the next season is already waiting around the corner!

French Championships - Nordic Combined Individual 10km
Finally, especially for the day of the Nordic Combined competition, the weather came up with a lot of sunshine and a blue sky which was only sometimes covered by some clouds - great outer conditions which were equally enjoyed by athltes and spectators. In the Senior category, Sébastien Lacroix took his chance which came up after Jason Lamy could not take part in the competition due to his little injury yesterday, and finish first! He gained the title of the French Champion in front of Florian Pinel and Francois Braud. Ther latter had earlier won the ski jumping but could not hold on to his first place in the race. In the Junior category it was Samuel Guy who could take the title in front of Romain Jacquier and Gautier Airiau!

Jason Lamy Chappuis should have participated as well, but he had a little accident during the warming up when he did some jumping immitations . It is still not sure, if he will compete tomorrow, but all in all, the injury is not too bad.
