L’équipe de France de relais mixte a décroché la médaille d’argent aux championnats du monde de cross, samedi 10 janvier à Tallahassee (Etats-Unis), au terme d’une superbe performance collective. Rendue possible par une préparation millimétrée la veille de la course, et un sacré supplément d’âme… On vous raconte l’exploit de l’intérieur.
Ce fut un coup pensé, préparé et réalisé dans ses moindres détails, et même un peu mieux encore.En devenant samedi 10 janvier vice-championne du monde de relais mixte à Tallahassee, en floride, l’équipe de France a rempli un objectif qui lui trottait dans la tête, après avoir accumulé les podiums au niveau européen, mais loin d’être joué d’avance.« Cette médaille, c’était clairement l’objectif de chaque personne impliquée dans ce co
It must be said that everything had been scrutinized, calculated, to the nearest meter. “I think we managed the course better than the other teams“,estimates Bastien Perraux. ”It was captivating, wiht technical and difficult passages on the second half of the course (ed. note: the loop each relay runner completed was two kilometers long) : mud, a river to cross, logs… We had tested everything the day before: how many supports between each log, where to pass in the water to avoid sinking too much, because there was a good 50 cm deep in the middle, and only fifteen on the sides… All the athletes were aware of this. We had also asked them to control the pace on the first kilometer, to then restart in the difficulties, at the end of the course, when the others would be tired.” Alexis confirms: ”I always stayed one or two seconds behind the leading group, to conserve as much energy as possible for the more intricate parts.” And the logs weren’t going to scare the 2024 European steeple champion… Another technical detail, revealed by Bastien: “We had asked the boys to do more travel, so to pass the baton to the girls at the end of the zone. It’s not much, but we gain about a second each time… When I saw that we were in the game on the first pass, I was quite serene.“
Even if everything escapes him a little, at that moment: “There was no coaching zone, and we were really unable to communicate with the athletes.There, we became spectators, us coaches…” Alexis Miellet, thus, quickly joins the area where the athletes wait their turn, or recover, and becomes an advisor. “I tried to warn the others that the conditions had changed a bit: since the day before, the organizers had added even more mud. And when we arrived at the river, an official prevented us from passing on the left, the place we had spotted! So we had to choose the other side, that’s what I told my teammates…“
