79.72km – 10H04’ <br>Altitude : 101m<br>We are leaving the Nord region to enter Picardy. For the past 3 days Serge has been able to run on flat terrain and is almost continually accompanied, which has given him a boost. But this morning he looks fatigued. Everything takes him a long time: getting up, having breakfast and getting ready. He starts slowly with Frédéric and Jean-Christophe, the JD who was responsible for the organization of yesterday’s event. I would also like to thank the UFF, who works unobtrusively on these events.<br>Pascal, the hot air balloon pilot, came to jog a bit. Catherine, Jean-François and Christian are present for the 4th consecutive day and will be with us until Saturday noon, when they return to Montpellier. Serge is again talkative and animated. There is no rain until the beginning of the afternoon.<br>At the locks in Lesdins, there are about 30 people waiting for Serge to run the final 7 kilometers. The finish on the Place de l’Hotel de Ville de Saint-Quentin is very animated. It is orchestrated by the Saint-Quentin section of the CJD and with the active participation of the municipality.<br>Serge is tired but happy. It has been a succession of long stages run at a good rhythm. As Lafesse would say “Let’s hope that it lasts”! <br><br>To calculate the starting time, take the figure of 7 km/hour and since you have the finish time you just have to make the calculation.<br>Thanks to the GPRS beacon and the itinerary you can visualize Serge<br>I will not respond to any requests for schedules or itineraries, because there are too many. Thanks for your understanding.<br>If not all the information is indicated below it is because I don’t have all the data from the organizers of the city stages.<br><br>
