33.8 km - 480m D +

I take the road at sunrise day to get a little comfortable, 125 km separate the two valleys "Trappist" Orval and Chimay (here we go again ...!). Collection of numbers, it was announced 280 runners on the 3 distances (11-22-33 km), about 90 on the grand tour.
Time is a cool, dry weather looks with some sunny, ideal weather for running.

ready to start the first trail of the year!

9:25. Briefing. Then the mob rushed ... very quietly for a few hundred meters! Re-briefing near a small bridge, it is in fact the passage of the last hundred yards, then it restarts small explanation ... for a few more hundreds of m. Crossing the road, a hedge, a subdivision, consolidation. Re-re-briefing ... final this time, it is indeed the place to start. I did not quite follow .... and apparently I was not alone!
9:40. This time, it is indeed gone. In light side, just to refine heating.
KM 2.5, is parting with the circuit of 11 km. We attack a nice steep slope, small cap, " not push each turn . The atmosphere is friendly ... A little earlier, it still works, I decided to attack and I calmenment exceeds a couple of good competitors. Then follows a succession of small easy paths, trails through the woods, and supplies to 8 th km. Already! But I have not even lust ... Well, I zap and I'll see the following, I have what I need with me.
1:10 to 11 e km, my pace is good and Regular, good feelings, I let off steam in one or the other down and took the opportunity to return each time on my predecessors.
Passage along the dam Ry Rome. The course is hilly with no excess, always pleasant little trail "Russian mountain", one or the other beautiful side not very long, crossing small streams.
Second ravito ^e to 19 miles, I take this opportunity to enjoy a small Coke and a snack.
22 ^e miles, 2:20. I would be so at 33 3:30 ^e , my estimate of departure. I keep my rhythm. After quite a journey
loop in the forest, we go back along the lake dam. Less interesting passage on tarmac, long enough. Then fork right and beautiful climb, followed by a beautiful descent. I save me in the first, to give much in the second. Then along flat trail, you reach the highway about 100m. I'm at 3:05. Right turns, short steep path, false flat and then down to the last bridge. I have about 200m, I draw my last reserves and ends 12 'before I estimate.

Very good race on a course attractive and varied. Belle average distance to bring the season and assess his fitness. I am very happy with my first result 2011!

A good shower at the pool next door, little spaghetti .... good Chimay! (Ah, you guessed?)

result 3h18'41 - 44 th / 86 - 13/23 V2

"The life of a fool" by Ryunosuke Akutagawa

Ryûnosoke Akutagawa is a renowned author in Japan, there 's so important that even a literary prize bearing his name: the Akutagawa Prize . The texts appear here this be his last before his suicide in 1927.

+ + + The back cover + + +

A man takes the train to Tokyo. A passenger told her about a ghost in a raincoat. Moments later, he meets someone in a raincoat, too light for the season. In his hotel room, a third coat is placed on the back of his chair ... All indications of the gear that drives the narrator into madness. Two new posthumous author of this great Japanese literature, terrible pages that prepare the staging of its Suicide ...

+ + + + + + My opinion

At the end of his life Ryunosuke Akutagawa undergoing any hallucinations, and possibly sinking slowly into madness like her mother. This is evident in both texts here, as in the first called "Gears" in the second named "The life of an idiot" two texts published posthumously, two texts on madness.

It starts playing with "Gears" a text destabilizing. In fact I must not be easy with the madness, because the texts that I read in connection with this subject leaves me a funny feeling. And I think it basically comes from that, because the style is beautiful, Akutagawa writes well! The tone is given, the pace is just fine and phrases, but the fact I have not specifically hooked. Maybe because I was expecting something more coherent ... but madness is not consistent. So much for me.

The second text, "The life of an idiot" has more taste of autobiography, more than the first. Besides these two texts have in common, first topic of madness and then some things happening there, as an effect mirror. As if one was a distorted reality, and the other a more distorted image of reality. Cons by the text is brief, concise, see too I think, which makes it somewhat incomprehensible substance. But having them together is a good idea I think.

Ultimately, it will not stay a memorable reading. In fact I even have trouble remembering what really happened inside. But I'll try reading "Rashomon" should perhaps please me more about the content, because closer to a Japanese legend, in form as stated above: it is very well written.

"Jazz" by Philippe Hucher

If you want to tickle know more about jazz and expand without too you without investing too much, here is the perfect book! A counselor!

+ + + The back cover + + +

From Slavery to racial segregation, jazz history is intimately intertwined with the struggle for civil rights led by African Americans. It is a vibration that shakes the blues people, America at war against itself, the former black slaves who haunt the story white. It's a rhythm that accents its balance swing or bebop, which inhabits the body forever. It is a breath sensual plant roots and branches its painful its thousand branches, to adapt again and again. Songs of slaves to free jazz, jazz Philippe Hucher penetrates and gives us the history of this protean and timeless music.


+ + + Rate + + +

It is true that I will not touch a jazz standard, however, is a musical genre that interests me more. Musically it is a style ultra-rich, much richer is exploratory than is most of the music. Jazz is also a universe of claims, exploration and release music as human.

In my musical past, my life is mostly made around the sphere independent hardcore punk, the funds cellar, one which saw his musical life alone, that self-manages and rebels, which s' expresses and rages. Evidenced by my former label activity , distributor, organizer of concerts and the creation of the website Shoot Me Again . In jazz I found something similar, sometimes more sedate, sometimes more free, more often subtle and necessarily different from what I knew. Nevertheless, the beb-bop, hard bop and free jazz are creative currents, innovative and liberating as it was not found in other music before. Although currently some gentrified part of jazz, is repeated, the same jazz was learned in high school music in clubs rather than obscure, the style remains a bubble of music that has not finished interested .

Reading this little book, I was finally able to put labels on music names, from swing to free-jazz, bebop and big band. It Hits for almost every taste. Presented in an essentially historical, the book provides us with a beautiful and changing currents, the remaining short while letting a real passion for this music, the author gives us really want to dig a little more kind. Especially John Coltrane it seems to be on an equal pedestal. Besides the "My favorite things" of Coltrane is a beautiful song I think ... As "Kind of Blue" of Miles Davis ... Well let's stop there.

short, it is with pleasure that I will go through the discography left by the author and I will consult my notes to find me some other artists of the genre.

A very nice little book. Why not offer a good jazz album?
