Nordic Walking Marathon Mtl.
category (Male and Female) in the 10km race walk Nordic Chinook. It’s the rain
that started the Nordic walking fun race and it was nothing to stop them! "It’s
very nice weather to walk today and I feel great …" we launched a very
optimistic tone that Louis was celebrating his 63rd birthday yesterday!
It was Charles-Andre Bannon who had started his 10 km behind the group
slowly but quickly gained the lead and eventually win the gold medal of
participation! "The further I went, each Nordic walking in front of me became my
new goal until I found myself alone in front, I could not believe it!" Said
Charles Andrew.

For his part great runner Caroline Perron in women, seeing his friend
Eliane Blanchard (in remission from cancer) spinning at full speed, she just
keep her company, not a certain and perfect technique his passion for Nordic
walking led to the finish line in first position. Bravo Caro, you deserved it!
I took the opportunity to thank the organization of the Montreal Marathon
and its President Mr. Bernard Arsenault who believed and leave any room for the
Chinook team to incorporate this new discipline at the Montreal Marathon. In
total, some 76 registered and 43 people who eventually participated.
