00:01:00:01 - 00:01:01:11
Bravo !
00:01:01:23 - 00:01:04:11
Let's go ! Be brave !
00:01:35:14 - 00:01:38:06
My dad did Strasbourg-Paris.
00:01:38:06 - 00:01:41:22
I am the daughter of Mr. Jean Miallat,
La Chaussée-sur-Marne.
00:01:44:12 - 00:01:46:02
I get emotional.
00:01:46:16 - 00:01:48:10
How long ago did he do it?
00:01:48:10 - 00:01:52:09
I was young, I was a kid.
00:01:52:24 - 00:01:54:23
He did it with Novak.
00:01:54:23 - 00:01:57:18
And you, were you his trainer?
00:01:58:10 - 00:01:59:24
I was a kid when dad,
00:01:59:24 - 00:02:02:05
He'd train when he came home from work.
00:02:03:06 - 00:02:04:24
What did your father do?
00:02:04:24 - 00:02:07:07
He worked in civil engineering,
00:02:08:22 - 00:02:11:08
in the laboratory of Vitry-le-François.
00:02:11:08 - 00:02:13:04
How was the race back then?
00:02:13:04 - 00:02:14:22
Would you say something?
00:02:14:22 - 00:02:16:05
The race?
00:02:18:09 - 00:02:21:02
I was young, but...
00:02:22:15 - 00:02:26:04
There was a lot more people.
00:02:26:04 - 00:02:29:10
It was much more exciting
00:02:29:10 - 00:02:30:22
Though I was so young.
00:02:31:22 - 00:02:34:02
But I can't tell you much more...
00:02:34:18 - 00:02:38:04
I get too emotional,
I find it quite hard to speak about it.
00:02:43:00 - 00:02:45:23
I'll do what I can,
medically speaking.
00:02:45:23 - 00:02:50:11
The problem is that there is
no more listening between you two.
00:03:00:09 - 00:03:03:23
... in relation to training,
physically.
00:03:11:04 - 00:03:12:08
Ok, it's good!
00:03:14:01 - 00:03:15:16
We still have 50 kilometres to go
00:03:15:16 - 00:03:17:12
to get to Bar-le-Duc.
00:03:18:11 - 00:03:21:00
So, 50 kilometres. Not easy.
00:04:02:19 - 00:04:06:21
- Deep Distance -
00:05:06:10 - 00:05:07:12
Am I on time?
00:05:07:12 - 00:05:08:10
Yes, that's ok!
00:06:48:16 - 00:06:50:16
A little wait and see.
00:06:57:00 - 00:06:58:20
harm is part of...
00:06:59:08 - 00:07:00:16
It's part of the game.
00:07:02:02 - 00:07:03:17
Especially on these events!
00:07:05:07 - 00:07:07:13
The longer it is the more crap you get.
00:07:11:02 - 00:07:13:08
All who have done the Paris-Colmar
00:07:13:08 - 00:07:16:09
have quit at least once.
00:07:16:15 - 00:07:17:07
At least.
00:07:18:05 - 00:07:20:13
No one ever managed to do
it without quitting.
00:07:22:08 - 00:07:23:09
It's crazy.
00:07:23:09 - 00:07:24:13
But also normal.
00:07:24:24 - 00:07:26:23
At the slightest glitch it turns to disaster.
00:07:26:23 - 00:07:28:15
That's what's so annoying.
00:07:37:03 - 00:07:39:01
Withdrawal.
00:07:39:01 - 00:07:40:06
Whose car is it?
00:07:40:16 - 00:07:42:09
Can you give me the time, please?
00:07:44:21 - 00:07:46:11
6H45.
00:08:05:14 - 00:08:07:10
Where did you get your cup?
00:08:07:10 - 00:08:10:14
At the pool,
in swimming.
00:08:10:14 - 00:08:12:09
First place at swimming!
00:08:14:18 - 00:08:16:15
Is this your first cup?
00:08:16:15 - 00:08:16:24
Yes.
00:08:18:13 - 00:08:19:15
It starts like this,
00:08:19:19 - 00:08:21:01
you see how it ends?
00:08:22:16 - 00:08:24:04
No, no, it's not true.
00:08:24:04 - 00:08:26:11
He doesn't mean what he says.
00:08:26:11 - 00:08:27:21
It never ends.
00:08:28:03 - 00:08:28:20
Oh yes!
00:08:31:00 - 00:08:32:10
It never ends
00:08:32:10 - 00:08:33:11
He's a fighter!
00:09:02:09 - 00:09:03:14
Paris-Alsace 2012
00:09:03:14 - 00:09:07:13
was a year in which I left
a little drained because I got a bit sick
00:09:08:04 - 00:09:12:05
and halfway through the race,
I had to make the decision to stop.
00:09:12:05 - 00:09:14:06
I didn't feel capable
00:09:14:10 - 00:09:16:17
of doing another 200 kilometres.
00:09:16:24 - 00:09:18:24
So, in Ligny-en-Barrois,
I decided to stop.
00:09:26:09 - 00:09:28:06
The Paris-Alsace 2013 edition
00:09:28:06 - 00:09:30:15
was a complete success for me
00:09:30:15 - 00:09:34:10
since I prepared myself a little differently
by going to Saint Petersburg to train
00:09:34:10 - 00:09:37:08
with Dimitri Ossipov, who had won
the event for several years.
00:09:37:24 - 00:09:41:16
So it was a great battle I won and a very big moment.
00:10:09:03 - 00:10:12:12
Jean-Marie, how does it feel to
finish the race, is it a relief?
00:10:13:21 - 00:10:15:00
It's very hard.
00:10:26:07 - 00:10:27:10
Well.
00:10:28:02 - 00:10:29:19
Let's start again.
00:10:31:02 - 00:10:32:23
Yes it is...
00:10:33:17 - 00:10:35:02
a formidable test.
00:10:36:11 - 00:10:38:20
It is the most difficult, it's true
00:10:39:13 - 00:10:41:22
but also the most beautiful.
00:10:42:17 - 00:10:45:11
From memory, I gave you a
waiver on this.
00:10:45:11 - 00:10:46:20
Absolutely.
00:10:46:20 - 00:10:50:13
We agreed on a price
and you told me, if we have to work again
00:10:50:13 - 00:10:51:16
we'll work on it.
00:10:51:16 - 00:10:55:20
So I'll call you back because potentially
you have to work again.
00:10:55:20 - 00:10:58:08
I have the impression
that he just wants to discuss it again on principle,
00:10:58:17 - 00:11:02:05
because he implied that he could place the order
00:11:02:05 - 00:11:03:06
today or tomorrow.
00:11:04:07 - 00:11:06:03
He just had to validate with the client,
00:11:06:03 - 00:11:06:20
but the client,
00:11:06:20 - 00:11:07:15
there is the time difference
00:11:07:15 - 00:11:10:02
because I think the client,
is the one in Hong Kong, the final one,
00:11:10:02 - 00:11:12:08
in relation to the time difference,
since the Spanish,
00:11:12:09 - 00:11:13:10
there is no time lag.
00:11:13:10 - 00:11:16:13
So, then, do you want to
to participate or not?
00:11:16:22 - 00:11:17:17
Yes, yes, but we will...
00:11:18:08 - 00:11:20:02
we are going to do something.
What I propose to you....
00:11:20:02 - 00:11:21:07
You can send me an email
because I'm in the car.
00:11:21:07 - 00:11:23:16
I will arrive in the afternoon,
00:11:24:13 - 00:11:26:16
and I can re-do a waiver,
00:11:26:16 - 00:11:27:08
actually.
00:11:29:17 - 00:11:31:20
Long distance walking is an amateur sport.
00:11:32:08 - 00:11:36:08
This means that it complicates
the training programme.
00:11:37:11 - 00:11:39:13
We work 8 hours a day.
00:11:39:13 - 00:11:41:03
We need to train.
00:11:41:03 - 00:11:42:12
You need to rest.
00:11:42:12 - 00:11:44:14
So that leaves us very,
very little time.
00:12:35:11 - 00:12:36:16
The Paris-Alsace is prepared
00:12:36:16 - 00:12:40:18
in a very organised way,
it takes about 150km
00:12:40:22 - 00:12:45:01
or even more,
up to 250 km per week.
00:12:45:23 - 00:12:48:03
As I plan over eight weeks,
00:12:48:03 - 00:12:51:03
I have to do 1000 km within eight weeks
00:12:51:22 - 00:12:54:17
and from there,
I consider that I have the mileage,
00:12:54:17 - 00:12:57:13
even if I can't do 450 km
per training session,
00:12:57:14 - 00:12:59:23
which entails the distance of this event.
00:13:00:13 - 00:13:03:02
But the building up of every day
makes me feel ready.
00:13:03:16 - 00:13:06:00
I feel capable of tackling these 450 km.
00:15:00:17 - 00:15:02:00
It's true that in the team,
00:15:02:00 - 00:15:03:23
there are people
who have some experience,
00:15:03:23 - 00:15:05:22
who have already participated
several editions with me.
00:15:06:13 - 00:15:09:02
There are some new people,
so welcome,
00:15:09:02 - 00:15:12:07
I hope that we will be as successful
as in previous years.
00:15:12:07 - 00:15:14:14
I'm at two wins
and we're starting again this year
00:15:14:22 - 00:15:17:11
for this 2020 edition to go
for a new title.
00:15:18:06 - 00:15:21:06
A title that we will share because
we will win it together,
00:15:21:06 - 00:15:22:09
of course.
00:15:22:09 - 00:15:25:03
I would be unable to
to win on my own, even if I am
00:15:25:03 - 00:15:28:02
the walker who's in front of the camper,
who's going to make a little effort.
00:15:28:15 - 00:15:31:07
But above all I rely on the consistency
00:15:31:07 - 00:15:33:18
that this whole team
could bring.
00:15:34:16 - 00:15:38:01
Without further ado,
l et me give you a little reminder on
00:15:38:01 - 00:15:41:22
the different topics we will cover
before embarking in
00:15:41:22 - 00:15:44:08
this four-day/four nights event.
00:15:44:20 - 00:15:48:19
A historical event, dating back to 1926.
00:15:49:08 - 00:15:53:10
It was created after
the First World War in order to link
00:15:53:10 - 00:15:56:16
Strasbourg, the capital of Alsace —which became French again
00:15:56:16 - 00:15:58:20
after World War Two—,
to Paris.
00:15:59:20 - 00:16:02:02
This is the story. It's important
00:16:02:02 - 00:16:04:19
because it was created
by the French government
00:16:04:19 - 00:16:09:00
and that is why it is still awarded
by the French President today.
00:16:09:11 - 00:16:13:12
So it is important for us,
for the whole team, to make it
00:16:13:20 - 00:16:16:22
a third time, not in a row,
but a third time nonetheless.
00:16:18:10 - 00:16:21:08
The Swiss Jean Linder,
dairyman by trade
00:16:22:02 - 00:16:23:17
and participant of the Paris-Strasbourg.
00:16:23:17 - 00:16:27:06
won the first two events
in 1926 and 1927.
00:16:27:23 - 00:16:30:10
A few years later I'd wear his outfit
00:16:30:10 - 00:16:32:11
and fake mustache as a tribute to him.
00:16:36:12 - 00:16:38:16
The starting point is Place de la République.
00:16:38:16 - 00:16:42:18
540 kilometres to Strasbourg.
A very popular event,
00:16:42:18 - 00:16:46:08
since it is the third event
after the cyclist's Tour de France
00:16:46:15 - 00:16:47:21
and the Football French Cup.
00:16:55:09 - 00:16:58:02
Now I will dwell a little more
on the individual roles.
00:16:58:17 - 00:16:59:24
You will have several roles.
00:17:00:21 - 00:17:04:02
We are fourteen in the team.
00:17:04:17 - 00:17:07:03
I'm going to play the lead role,
obviously.
00:17:07:03 - 00:17:10:05
I'm going to be the walker.
I have the simplest role,
00:17:10:05 - 00:17:12:21
which is putting one foot
in front of the other
00:17:12:21 - 00:17:15:09
during the 450 kilometres between
Paris and Ribeauvillé.
00:17:16:01 - 00:17:17:20
Next to me,
there will always be a follower.
00:17:17:20 - 00:17:19:18
There are three of you taking turns,
00:17:19:18 - 00:17:22:03
over the three days
and the two sleepless nights,
00:17:22:03 - 00:17:24:16
so there will be three of you taking
take turns on a bike.
00:17:24:16 - 00:17:28:22
This will allow the followers to be
next to me, to listen to me
00:17:28:22 - 00:17:29:23
if I need anything,
00:17:29:23 - 00:17:33:00
to come and provide me with supplies,
to bring me water, food
00:17:33:00 - 00:17:35:24
and possibly a change of clothes
depending on the weather conditions.
00:17:36:11 - 00:17:40:00
Even if I don't ask for anything, you
are my brain.
00:17:40:13 - 00:17:44:03
That's to say, it's you who'll come feed me,
who'll bring me a drink,
00:17:44:03 - 00:17:46:23
who'll dress me accordingly as the
weather changes.
00:17:47:09 - 00:17:48:16
I make no decisions.
00:17:48:16 - 00:17:51:07
It'll be you who decides everything in advance.
You'll really be my brain.
00:18:11:19 - 00:18:14:00
A word about our partners,
00:18:14:00 - 00:18:16:17
you know that we cannot succeed
without a minimum of means.
00:18:16:18 - 00:18:18:18
So partners follow us.
00:18:18:18 - 00:18:20:15
These are people who believe in us.
00:18:20:15 - 00:18:22:08
This victory,
they will also benefit from it.
00:18:22:08 - 00:18:24:18
They will benefit from it
in their means of communication.
00:18:24:18 - 00:18:27:22
So it is important
to be very close to these partners.
00:18:28:18 - 00:18:29:23
Legs or breast?
00:18:31:00 - 00:18:32:10
Do your guys have teeth?
00:18:32:10 - 00:18:34:03
If they have teeth,
we'll give them chicken legs,
00:18:34:03 - 00:18:35:20
if they don't we'll give them fillets.
00:18:35:20 - 00:18:37:21
Well...what's there?
00:18:39:11 - 00:18:42:00
I'll show you what I have.
A little chicken fillet,
00:18:42:00 - 00:18:45:16
so that you get inspired and choose.
Farm chicken legs here,
00:18:45:16 - 00:18:47:09
Guineafowl cuts.
00:18:50:06 - 00:18:51:15
Guineafowl cuts.
00:18:51:15 - 00:18:53:18
You can consume them
over the two or three days,
00:18:53:18 - 00:18:56:01
you have zero problems because
00:18:56:01 - 00:18:58:10
you need to take products
that can be stored.
00:18:58:10 - 00:19:00:16
Do you have a fridge?
— Yes, I do.
00:19:01:20 - 00:19:02:10
Great.
00:19:02:19 - 00:19:04:03
That's easy to do.
00:19:04:17 - 00:19:05:13
Take a look.
00:19:06:05 - 00:19:09:06
Roast duck, it's great.
00:19:09:06 - 00:19:12:09
You simply roast it, you slice it.
00:19:12:09 - 00:19:13:17
A great product.
00:19:14:03 - 00:19:17:21
How beautiful!
You'll have to put this one in front.
00:19:18:06 - 00:19:20:07
It will set the pace.
00:19:21:15 - 00:19:22:22
We will accompany you
00:19:22:22 - 00:19:25:14
to the extent that
it is part of the local branch.
00:19:25:14 - 00:19:28:12
At the next meeting,
we will optimize and see
00:19:28:12 - 00:19:30:06
with the managers
of the local branch
00:19:30:06 - 00:19:32:06
how much we will be able to grant you.
But in any case,
00:19:32:06 - 00:19:34:17
we will accompany you
in this project.
00:19:34:17 - 00:19:37:23
It's to finance your team
of 20 people?
00:19:37:23 - 00:19:40:03
Is that right?
- That's right.
00:19:40:03 - 00:19:42:04
Are these 20 people from Pithiviers?
00:19:42:04 - 00:19:45:01
The big feature
of this new project
00:19:45:01 - 00:19:48:07
is once again
to have team members from Pithiverais.
00:19:48:07 - 00:19:51:17
It is important because
I am also a Pithivérien,
00:19:51:17 - 00:19:55:03
by birth, and then also living
in the region.
00:19:55:03 - 00:19:59:10
I needed to have Pithivérian partners
to complete the project
00:19:59:10 - 00:20:01:21
So it must be a success for Pithiviers.
00:20:02:03 - 00:20:05:09
I'll remind you by next week,
as it's been quite sudden,
00:20:05:09 - 00:20:09:12
to tell you what budget we can allocate
to our partnership.
00:20:09:20 - 00:20:10:23
It's a great pleasure
00:20:10:23 - 00:20:13:09
to accompany you
as we have always done.
00:20:13:23 - 00:20:17:01
So here, you have
a very simple trap door
00:20:17:01 - 00:20:20:04
with two gas bottles
which are available to you.
00:20:20:14 - 00:20:22:18
It will allow us to make food
inside, right?
00:20:22:18 - 00:20:23:10
Absolutely.
00:20:23:19 - 00:20:26:03
You will be able to cook
to your heart's content,
00:20:26:03 - 00:20:29:03
because they will be full
for your departure.
00:20:29:11 - 00:20:33:02
Just one thing : you will have to
to close them during the journey.
00:20:33:18 - 00:20:37:05
Every time you start up,
you close the gas cylinders.
00:20:37:05 - 00:20:38:23
All about Safety.
00:20:39:03 - 00:20:41:09
You talked to me
00:20:41:09 - 00:20:43:13
about accessibility to the roof.
00:20:43:13 - 00:20:45:18
Yes.
— So I thought...
00:20:45:18 - 00:20:48:06
I have planned a camper with a ladder,
00:20:48:06 - 00:20:51:06
it will allow you to access
the roof easily.
00:20:51:11 - 00:20:53:03
It is very practical.
00:20:53:03 - 00:20:56:02
You just have a little strap
that holds it in place.
00:20:56:02 - 00:21:00:02
You untie it, you pull
and it settles itself.
00:21:00:02 - 00:21:01:17
It's really convenient.
00:21:07:08 - 00:21:10:13
Have you seen how you are built?
00:21:10:13 - 00:21:11:04
Those are not legs,
00:21:11:05 - 00:21:12:21
they are chicken legs.
00:23:40:13 - 00:23:42:06
Here's your orange juice.
00:23:42:06 - 00:23:43:02
Great, thanks !
00:23:54:05 - 00:23:56:15
Hey, there's news.
00:23:57:12 - 00:24:00:00
It was you who put the article?
00:24:00:07 - 00:24:03:05
I must have put this on yesterday.
- Someone made a comment
00:24:03:05 - 00:24:04:10
and it came out.
00:24:05:12 - 00:24:06:22
Françoise and I met...
00:24:06:22 - 00:24:09:00
I was 23 years old.
00:24:09:00 - 00:24:11:19
It was at a concert
because I was a musician,
00:24:12:08 - 00:24:16:02
I was hosting a party with a band.
We never left each other,
00:24:16:02 - 00:24:19:10
and then, I want to say...
a normal life.
00:24:19:10 - 00:24:21:17
We made a home, a family.
00:24:21:17 - 00:24:23:16
We have a son who is now 28 years old,
00:24:26:12 - 00:24:28:17
Françoise has always been with me,
00:24:28:17 - 00:24:31:23
in everything I've practiced
all over the world.
00:24:32:14 - 00:24:33:21
She has always been there,
00:24:33:21 - 00:24:35:14
she always followed me.
00:24:35:14 - 00:24:38:14
She even participated in some
events.
00:24:42:20 - 00:24:45:05
Françoise has a particular
role to play
00:24:45:05 - 00:24:47:19
since she's the closest to me,
00:24:47:19 - 00:24:50:11
who makes my drinks,
my meals,
00:24:50:11 - 00:24:53:03
changes my clothes,
when necessary.
00:24:53:10 - 00:24:56:02
She is with me 24 hours a day.
00:24:56:02 - 00:24:59:04
It's important that I am here
24 hours a day.
00:24:59:04 - 00:25:04:04
First of all, to feed him
almost every four hours.
00:25:04:04 - 00:25:06:18
It's very important for me
to be there.
00:25:07:05 - 00:25:10:13
And then, to encourage him,
because
00:25:10:13 - 00:25:14:22
there are times when he slacks,
00:25:14:22 - 00:25:18:12
And it becomes necessary
getting the machine back on track,
00:25:18:12 - 00:25:21:03
You have to talk to him,
to motivate him.
00:25:21:03 - 00:25:23:10
He needs to be helped.
00:25:24:02 - 00:25:27:02
Even if he is suffering,
you have to cheer him up.
00:25:27:02 - 00:25:29:03
it's very hard.
00:25:29:03 - 00:25:32:13
Jean-Marie, stand up straight,
you lean to the left
00:25:32:13 - 00:25:34:02
He is a winner,
00:25:34:02 - 00:25:35:23
we can see it right away.
00:25:35:23 - 00:25:37:12
He really has...
00:25:38:02 - 00:25:39:11
He has an ambition.
00:25:39:11 - 00:25:43:23
He has an urge to always be
the first.
00:25:43:23 - 00:25:45:15
And for me
00:25:45:15 - 00:25:47:13
that was a very good thing.
00:25:47:13 - 00:25:49:22
That's what I liked about him.
00:25:49:22 - 00:25:51:06
That's for sure.
00:25:53:13 - 00:25:56:09
We are not the only ones
to have this special life.
00:25:57:02 - 00:25:58:14
We know other couples,
00:25:58:14 - 00:26:01:20
in particular Lydia and François,
who are embarking on the adventure.
00:26:01:20 - 00:26:05:00
We rub shoulders and like each other
and we do it all together.
00:26:11:11 - 00:26:13:21
François? I am ready.
00:26:13:21 - 00:26:16:04
Shall we go?
- Five, ten minutes...
00:26:16:04 - 00:26:18:03
I'll finish this and then I'll come.
00:26:22:11 - 00:26:24:04
I was doing ultra-trail.
00:26:24:04 - 00:26:28:06
She wanted to come with me, so we
began with small races
00:26:29:23 - 00:26:34:12
She liked it, then we
started to do some nice races
00:26:34:12 - 00:26:38:10
80 km, 100 km.
00:26:40:11 - 00:26:44:21
One day she fell downhill
and it scared her.
00:26:44:21 - 00:26:48:24
It was hard to get back into it,
back into the race.
00:26:50:15 - 00:26:53:19
We have a friend
who does long-distance walking.
00:26:55:03 - 00:26:57:13
She wanted to try it,
00:26:58:17 - 00:26:59:22
and she liked it.
00:26:59:22 - 00:27:04:08
She is no longer afraid of falling
because it's on flat ground.
00:27:05:10 - 00:27:07:23
That's how we started...
00:27:09:06 - 00:27:11:04
to do the long-distance walk.
00:27:12:23 - 00:27:14:09
- Do you have kids?
00:27:14:09 - 00:27:15:08
Oh yes!
00:27:16:11 - 00:27:17:18
Eight children.
00:27:21:21 - 00:27:26:16
You use a Tannic care product
that you apply every day.
00:27:26:16 - 00:27:28:16
Every day?
- we simply spray it on
after the shower
00:27:28:16 - 00:27:30:07
and let it dry.
00:27:30:07 - 00:27:32:09
it toughens up the foot skin.
00:27:32:09 - 00:27:35:07
It's a tannic process,
like the dog's paw pads,
00:27:35:07 - 00:27:38:04
There are products for dogs
because they suffer too
00:27:38:04 - 00:27:40:05
when they are outside,
when they go hunting.
00:27:40:05 - 00:27:42:21
It's more or less the same
active principle.
00:27:42:21 - 00:27:44:16
So we do that.
00:27:44:16 - 00:27:48:07
And about eight days before,
we'd apply a cream
00:27:48:07 - 00:27:52:22
to toughen the foot skin a bit,
and that's all the care we do.
00:27:52:22 - 00:27:56:10
Despite this, you're going
00:27:56:10 - 00:27:58:21
to keep losing nails for sure.
00:27:58:21 - 00:28:03:15
We're only talking about nails,
but everyone has blisters, of course.
00:28:04:05 - 00:28:06:08
We know the phenomenon.
00:28:06:08 - 00:28:08:08
It hurts, it burns.
00:28:08:16 - 00:28:12:03
It burns until
the blister bursts.
00:28:13:03 - 00:28:15:23
Once the blister has burst,
you can't feel it.
00:28:15:23 - 00:28:20:03
Shouldn't we start slowly, speed up
during the night
00:28:20:03 - 00:28:22:20
and then come back at a slower pace?
00:28:23:05 - 00:28:24:23
It's a tactical choice.
00:28:24:23 - 00:28:28:07
I never adopted this pattern.
00:28:28:07 - 00:28:32:08
— Okay.
— I've always gone for a steady speed.
00:28:33:04 - 00:28:36:05
A steady pace from start to finish.
00:28:37:16 - 00:28:40:05
— Okay.
— It's a tactic that worked for me.
00:28:40:05 - 00:28:43:24
It's scary at first because...
they are all in front.
00:28:43:24 - 00:28:47:11
But no one's able to hold.
00:28:47:11 - 00:28:51:19
So, staying at a steady pace, for me,
00:28:51:19 - 00:28:55:03
it was about going past
the opponents one by one.
00:28:55:03 - 00:28:57:03
And that's encouraging.
— Yes.
00:28:57:03 - 00:29:00:14
It's motivating and
you don't think about sleeping.
00:29:02:07 - 00:29:05:04
Jordan, you should give him some gel !
00:29:05:04 - 00:29:07:16
Yes, it just went off on my watch.
00:29:16:04 - 00:29:18:02
ah it's him the one just before the Belgian one.
00:29:42:02 - 00:29:44:16
When I go for a walking race,
00:29:44:16 - 00:29:49:14
I talk to women walkers
and ask for their advice,
00:29:49:14 - 00:29:53:08
how they do it,
about their meals as well,
00:29:53:08 - 00:29:56:20
about a lot of things
that can help me.
00:29:56:20 - 00:30:01:09
Things we don't know
and which differ from men.
00:30:01:09 - 00:30:04:00
Because it's not easy
for women walkers.
00:30:07:04 - 00:30:12:15
It's nice to be able to discuss
with other women.
00:30:12:15 - 00:30:17:09
There are only a few of us,
in the long-distance walk.
00:30:22:10 - 00:30:24:17
I have worked for Siemens for 22 years.
00:30:24:17 - 00:30:29:17
I am involved in engineering
and technical services.
00:30:29:17 - 00:30:32:17
My role is to provide
automation solutions
00:30:32:17 - 00:30:36:16
to make production more
competitive, to make them go faster.
00:30:36:16 - 00:30:39:24
To automate more and more
and even digitalise.
00:30:53:23 - 00:30:56:12
We are entering
the fourth industrial revolution.
00:30:57:06 - 00:31:01:17
Simulation will allow us
to produce and manufacture differently.
00:31:02:04 - 00:31:05:13
We talk about artificial intelligence,
machines will be able
00:31:05:13 - 00:31:09:06
to propose things, study,
create formulas.
00:31:10:00 - 00:31:12:24
Today we can almost discuss
00:31:12:24 - 00:31:16:09
directly with robots.
00:31:16:09 - 00:31:20:22
Humans will command,
pilot, intervene if necessary.
00:31:20:22 - 00:31:24:18
So, of course, humans will always be
the hand on the robot.
00:32:49:00 - 00:32:51:05
I visit the desert regularly.
00:32:51:05 - 00:32:56:03
The first time I participated
in a marathon called Les Défis du Chott
00:32:56:03 - 00:32:58:09
in the south of Tunisia,
which I won.
00:32:58:09 - 00:33:01:05
I then joined the team.
00:33:01:05 - 00:33:03:06
I am the technical director.
00:33:03:06 - 00:33:04:17
For 22 years,
00:33:04:17 - 00:33:07:13
I go to the desert to organise
running events.
00:33:11:22 - 00:33:15:20
I'm used to train
on the plains of the Beauce,
00:33:15:20 - 00:33:19:18
I take pleasure in looking
at the infinite, far ahead.
00:33:19:18 - 00:33:22:19
Often seeing nothing,
imagining many things.
00:33:59:16 - 00:34:05:14
Here we are at the crossroads of
the National Road 4, there,
00:34:05:14 - 00:34:11:01
and this is the National Road 135
which goes from Bar-le-Duc
00:34:11:01 - 00:34:15:09
to Gondrecourt, Neufchâteau.
00:34:15:09 - 00:34:19:05
At Ligny-en-Barois, right here,
we are at the halfway point
00:34:20:19 - 00:34:24:10
of the Paris-Alsace event.
00:34:24:10 - 00:34:28:09
At 250 km, we're halfway.
00:34:33:14 - 00:34:37:06
When you get to Ligny-en-Barois,
you think, well, there's still so much to go.
00:34:37:06 - 00:34:40:14
It is not easy to accept,
but above all,
00:34:40:14 - 00:34:43:09
we have just spent our first
sleepless night.
00:34:43:09 - 00:34:46:01
The mind is a bit elsewhere,
we are tired.
00:34:47:04 - 00:34:49:22
The landscape is changing.
We are in the Meuse,
00:34:49:22 - 00:34:52:00
it's hilly.
00:34:52:00 - 00:34:53:14
There are long straight lines.
00:34:53:14 - 00:34:55:13
I'm training
on these long straight lines
00:34:55:13 - 00:34:58:00
in the Beauce region,
00:34:58:00 - 00:35:00:17
I like it,
but I'm aware it's difficult.
00:35:01:05 - 00:35:04:03
Afterwards, it's the desert for them,
00:35:04:03 - 00:35:07:07
because they hardly see a village.
00:35:07:07 - 00:35:08:13
There is nothing
00:35:08:13 - 00:35:12:22
and they have 30, 40 km like that.
00:35:12:22 - 00:35:18:03
Then, one or two villages,
to get to Épinal.
00:35:18:23 - 00:35:20:20
But it's really...
00:35:20:20 - 00:35:24:12
there are many drop-outs or stops
00:35:24:12 - 00:35:28:00
on medical advice.
00:35:28:00 - 00:35:30:18
Because there, they have
00:35:30:18 - 00:35:34:10
the drained feeling
on this fraction.
00:36:52:09 - 00:36:53:22
I had many relatives
around me.
00:36:54:21 - 00:36:56:24
Sporty,
but not necessarily.
00:36:56:24 - 00:36:59:05
I had people
who gave me something.
00:36:59:05 - 00:37:03:02
I had a childhood friend who
was not at all sporty,
00:37:03:02 - 00:37:06:03
but we knew each other very well.
00:37:06:03 - 00:37:09:07
and he really gave me
what was missing at times,
00:37:09:07 - 00:37:13:13
that is, no one else could
reenergize,
00:37:13:13 - 00:37:17:01
like he did.
Even though he wasn't sporty at all.
00:37:17:01 - 00:37:20:00
There was enough complicity there
00:37:20:00 - 00:37:22:15
to get the ball rolling again.
00:37:23:01 - 00:37:27:20
When one's having difficulties, there's
people willing to contribute something
00:37:27:20 - 00:37:31:07
Often, these people strip themselves.
00:37:31:07 - 00:37:35:21
They open up and reveal themselves.
00:37:35:21 - 00:37:39:17
It's interesting.
I've had the opportunity to discover people
00:37:39:17 - 00:37:43:14
on this event.
I've known them before
00:37:43:14 - 00:37:49:16
in daily life, whether professional or not,
having difficulties
00:37:49:16 - 00:37:54:22
like in the Paris-Alsace,
I discovered another facets of people.
00:37:54:22 - 00:37:58:19
Walking has given me
many things in my life.
00:37:58:19 - 00:38:01:04
I think that it has...
00:38:01:04 - 00:38:05:04
Walking allowed me to know myself
00:38:05:04 - 00:38:09:11
and to go higher than I had
planned to go.
00:38:09:11 - 00:38:10:20
In everything.
00:38:18:18 - 00:38:20:17
I remember some late evenings,
00:38:20:17 - 00:38:23:02
we used to close later than today,
00:38:23:02 - 00:38:25:03
I remember having runners at midnight
00:38:25:03 - 00:38:28:09
take a room because they were
forced to quit here.
00:38:28:09 - 00:38:30:09
We would even give them
staff rooms
00:38:30:09 - 00:38:32:24
because we were full.
00:38:32:24 - 00:38:36:04
We'd give them staff rooms
for rent because they were exhausted.
00:38:36:04 - 00:38:41:23
We put some up in the room,
they had no legs left and were out of breath.
00:38:41:23 - 00:38:44:19
It was impressive,
but they recovered quickly.
00:38:44:19 - 00:38:47:08
In the morning they were at breakfast.
00:38:49:08 - 00:38:52:09
They are people who want to win,
to reach the end at any rate,
00:38:52:09 - 00:38:54:13
even if they didn't win.
00:40:19:24 - 00:40:22:06
Do you put on headphones?
00:40:22:06 - 00:40:27:20
I either listen to music,
or audio books.
00:40:29:21 - 00:40:31:15
It's really great.
00:40:31:23 - 00:40:35:16
Winning is one thing. You don't
win the first time you show up on an event,
00:40:35:16 - 00:40:39:03
you need experience.
Failure is part of that.
00:40:42:02 - 00:40:44:22
You win in relation to what?
00:40:44:22 - 00:40:47:12
You win in relation to
the objectives you have set yourself.
00:40:47:12 - 00:40:51:03
It's also winning with regard to
my teammates, my partners,
00:40:51:03 - 00:40:55:01
people who trust me,
who bet on me and help me.
00:40:55:01 - 00:40:57:16
So, you are not alone.
00:41:01:23 - 00:41:06:07
Family is essential for a young person
who wants to go far in sport
00:41:06:07 - 00:41:08:21
or in other disciplines.
00:41:09:04 - 00:41:12:09
If there is no support from the family,
not much happens.
00:41:14:03 - 00:41:17:03
My parents have never done
any sport.
00:41:17:03 - 00:41:21:00
I kind of pushed myself.
My first competition,
00:41:21:00 - 00:41:23:09
they came to see me.
I was fourteen years old.
00:41:23:18 - 00:41:26:01
They wanted to see
how it was going,
00:41:26:01 - 00:41:31:03
I saw them a second time at my last
competition, in 2019.
00:41:31:03 - 00:41:34:23
We were on Paris-Alsace,
with a victory.
00:41:35:15 - 00:41:37:14
They've seen the first and the last.
00:41:44:20 - 00:41:46:24
All his brothers and sisters
followed the race.
00:41:47:08 - 00:41:49:17
This is the only year
that he had everyone.
00:41:49:17 - 00:41:51:21
We went on friday with
the son-in-law.
00:41:54:13 - 00:41:57:22
He really was ready to fall.
00:41:58:07 - 00:41:59:18
That hurts.
00:42:00:15 - 00:42:03:16
We said to ourselves: he won't go all the way.
00:42:03:19 - 00:42:06:11
And then it got better.
00:42:06:14 - 00:42:09:10
Afterwards, we followed him all the time,
we did all the steps.
00:42:10:01 - 00:42:14:18
We saw him further on. He saw his father,
he jumped on him.
00:42:16:09 - 00:42:17:21
The other son-in-law came
to tell him off:
00:42:17:21 - 00:42:19:10
"You have to keep going."
00:42:19:10 - 00:42:20:22
He went away again.
00:42:21:17 - 00:42:23:22
And at the finish line,
00:42:23:22 - 00:42:26:04
my husband jumped on him,
on Jean-Marie.
00:42:30:05 - 00:42:31:22
When I see him,
00:42:31:22 - 00:42:35:01
I greet him, telling him that
00:42:35:13 - 00:42:40:01
what he saw was his son's victory,
00:42:40:01 - 00:42:42:02
which was the most
important..
00:42:42:21 - 00:42:46:03
a few months later, he left us.
00:42:53:23 - 00:42:56:15
He said that he wouldn't do it again
because he has
00:42:56:15 - 00:42:59:05
too many memories with his father
that day.
00:42:59:05 - 00:43:02:06
He'll never do Paris-Alsace again, it's over.
00:43:02:06 - 00:43:04:03
He was attached to it,
00:43:04:03 - 00:43:06:09
but I think he will not do it again.
00:43:11:01 - 00:43:12:20
I grew up in Étréchy,
00:43:12:20 - 00:43:18:08
in Essonne, in the Paris region, with
my two sisters and my brother.
00:43:18:08 - 00:43:20:10
A third sister will arrive later.
00:43:20:10 - 00:43:24:18
We lived in Étréchy because my father
was a foreman in a machining center
00:43:24:18 - 00:43:29:07
in that industry, and he was provided
company housing.
00:43:31:20 - 00:43:33:06
At Étréchy,
00:43:33:06 - 00:43:34:12
an event is born,
00:43:34:12 - 00:43:37:09
a walking event called
"les 12 heures d'Étréchy."
00:43:37:09 - 00:43:39:15
It is a walking event
which is done in teams of two,
00:43:39:15 - 00:43:41:15
an American-style relay,
00:43:41:15 - 00:43:45:07
taking turns every lap for 12
hours and doing as many as possible.
00:43:45:07 - 00:43:48:01
This event is very popular,
00:43:48:01 - 00:43:50:00
all the people are on the street.
00:43:50:00 - 00:43:52:20
So pretty quickly,
I want to participate in this event.
00:43:55:09 - 00:43:59:04
To take part in it,
I need a parental authorization.
00:44:00:06 - 00:44:03:22
This will involve a lot of speech
with my father,
00:44:03:22 - 00:44:06:05
because I am only thirteen years old.
00:44:06:05 - 00:44:08:22
There are doubts that arise.
00:44:09:05 - 00:44:13:13
Is it possible at thirteen to walk
for so many hours, at night?
00:44:14:11 - 00:44:18:10
Especially because of my build,
which was not exceptional.
00:44:19:03 - 00:44:20:17
It's up to me
to convince him!
00:44:43:20 - 00:44:45:10
But why?
00:44:45:10 - 00:44:46:21
Because you're too young.
00:44:46:21 - 00:44:48:21
It's not a competition for kids.
00:44:48:21 - 00:44:51:00
So, stop insisting.
00:44:51:09 - 00:44:55:21
We've been training with Joel for months,
you haven't even come to see us once.
00:44:55:21 - 00:44:58:10
In any case, you never come
when I'm training.
00:45:00:24 - 00:45:02:22
You know, Dad, we are two.
00:45:02:22 - 00:45:05:00
This is a relay.
You have nothing to fear.
00:45:05:00 - 00:45:06:23
Listen Jean-Marie, you're getting
on my nerves.
00:45:06:23 - 00:45:09:20
I told you no, so stop
insisting. Go home.
00:45:10:14 - 00:45:14:01
You will do "Les 12 heures d'Étréchy"
when you are old enough.
00:45:14:01 - 00:45:15:24
When is old enough?
00:45:19:06 - 00:45:21:21
Have you seen how you are built?
00:45:21:21 - 00:45:24:07
Those aren't legs,
they are chicken legs!
00:45:25:06 - 00:45:26:11
Go away!
00:46:20:15 - 00:46:21:08
Dad!
00:46:22:08 - 00:46:23:13
What are you doing here?
00:46:23:13 - 00:46:25:12
- I wanted to tell you...
- Go home!
00:46:26:03 - 00:46:28:06
Go do your homework!
