Rollerski: Manon Pradel Payer takes gold for Auvergne
A French Rollerski title for the Auvergne Ski Committee! This Sunday morning, Manon Pradel Mayer of CN Aydat won the 6.6km U16 women’s mass-start classic at the French championships in Autrans (Isère).
The young cross-country skier from Auvergne won solo, after 22 min 26 sec 2 of effort, to take a fine gold medal. Emma Petitjean from the Jura region took silver at 8 sec 3, while Romane Schweitzer from the Vosges was 11 sec 9 behind.
“I’m really happy! I stayed behind Emma Petitjean throughout the race and, at the end, I thought it was time so I attacked with less than a kilometre to go, as the coaches had told me,” she explained to Nordic Magazine afterwards. I’m also really happy to win for Auvergne, it’s thanks to the committee that I’m where I am today, even though I’m based in Savoie, at the Lycée Reinach.
Giulia Lathuraz , who won the free sprint on Saturday, was fourth this time , while Emmi Bourgeois, Ludivine Donzel Gonet, Romane Durand, Linette Bouhelier, Liv Gardette and Nora Jeunet all made the top 10.
