(google translate)Large domain in the time trial at the Alpen Tour for Elettroveneta Corratec with the victory of Hynek (which consolidates the leadership) and the 2nd place for Nissen. Among women Bigham (Topeak Ergon) seems to have no problems. Polar temperature at high altitude.
Even so cold and snow in the time trial at the Alpen Tour, 16km with 1000m of altitude, arriving at an altitude of 1800m. The last km runners have them walking running because of the frozen ground and snow. The victory went to the blind man Kristian Hynek (Elettroveneta Corratec), European champion marathon, which seems to be comfortable with these temperatures. Behind him, Soren Nissen (2nd place)and Alban Lakata (3rd place).
In the women's race victory for Sally Bigham ahead Zeldenrust Monique and Nadia Walker. Missing 2 stages at the end but the runners have already tried a lot of the weather conditions.
