Rock Climbing 30:00 [1]
shoes: Five Ten

Trying out the climbing wall in Gresy-sur-Aix as it was free for a day. Really bad at the real climbing endurance.
1 PM

Hill Walk 1:32:20 intensity: (29:41 @0) + (1:02:18 @1) + (21 @2) 3.71 km (24:54 / km) +734m 12:31 / km

Last day in France. We were going to do some gardening but the weather looked like it was holding so we went for a quick walk up the Dent du Chat. It was super humid at the bottom and I was sweating buckets. Weather closed in and there was a bit of rain and it was super foggy with only ~10m visibility. Made the top pretty fun as we could see nothing. Still warm though.

Hill Walk 1:07:23 intensity: (59:40 @0) + (6:20 @1) + (1:23 @2) 3.82 km (17:39 / km) +62m 16:20 / km
ahr:94 max:147 shoes: Inov8 X-Talon 212

Down the dent, not too intense. Went into Aix for a pizza after.
8 PM

Note

It was then dark after the pizza and the jaunt, but we still hadn't done the gardening so I took the lamp and pointed it out the window. While it rained gina sewed the grass while I raked and then I planted the multicoloured heathers we had bought at the market. Who knows how good a job I did or didn't do!

ahr:120 max:166

Up le revard from Aix then down through Les Cheraines and Cusy. Really nice day out.

The climb up Le Revard really is tough. I stayed with Gina until Trevignin and then I pushed it on to the top. Legs pretty tired at the summit. Had a crepe and a white hot chocolate on the top. The descent to Les Cheraines was on fantastic roads and lovely sun, with some nice hairpins and was super enjoyable. The only issue was we arrived there at 2 and the boulangerie was closed until 3. Kept going as far as Cusy, 2 smaller climbs to do which were not bad, though one was gravelly, being resurfaced and stopped there for a french sandwich. Then back to Aix and to the beach for a swim.

ahr:109 max:154 shoes: Asics GT 1000

Les Grandes Moulins 2495m

Started at 1700m which is a nice high start really. Lovely walk through some alpine meadows as far as a refuge with great views up the valley. Ground sloped up then and we climbed around the corner into a nice hanging valley. Almost missed the junction and it got steeper again. Had lunch on an arête at 2222m! The last bit was pretty steep then but the reward was great serious views. The top was real interesting too with small boulders scattered on it.
12 PM

Hill Walk 1:51:37 intensity: (1:22:40 @0) + (27:41 @1) + (1:16 @2) 5.74 km (19:26 / km) +101m 17:52 / km
ahr:101 max:138 shoes: Asics GT 1000

The descent. Coming off the top was hairy enough and slow going. Very enjoyable walk balk down the valley.

Hill Walk 45:00 [1]
shoes: Asics GT 1000

Walk to the foot of P'tchi via ferrata. Absolutely spectacular walk, with amazing views of the river and the valley. The only day I didn't bring my phone for pictures due to not wanting to drop it off the via ferrata.

Rock Climbing (via ferrata) 1:30:00 [2]
shoes: Asics GT 1000

Via Ferrata P'tchi

This was pretty scary and some tough moves. Got pretty pumped and had plenty of adrenaline but was really fun. One super sketch move on the slippiest piece of rock I have ever seen but apart from that was mostly doable. Tiring though.

Men middle final from 2011. Hard with no controls and got stung by a wasp. A bit of felling slowing me near 10. Made a huge mess of 12 and took my time to try and match it all up. The bit of open has turned into a rollerski track so I spent some time trying to get around that too. Fun, would like to tag the sites and see how fast I can just run it
