Javea Grapevine Issue 176 - LARGE FONT EDITION | Page 51

Ladies team FENOLL MARÍ were the first to depart at 8.00am ten minutes slower than 2014 when the course was shorter but almost an hour quicker than the third edition in 2013. It has been credit to some very serious prerace training by the vast majority of the participants over the previous few weeks that these times were recorded; it was a truly stunning battle of fitness and stamina. The teams were drawn from across the region with walkers representing Jávea, M o r a i r a - Te u l a d a , Benissa, Gata de Gorgos, Pedreguer and Xaló amongst others as well as a mother-and-daughter pair who had flown in from the UK especially to take part in the Mirador Challenge.
