- Where is the best place to stay for race logistics?
- Millau is the most practical hub as it offers the most accommodation and is only a 20-minute drive from the Roquefort start line.
- Are there shuttle buses provided for athletes?
- The race typically encourages carpooling, but check the official website 2 months before for specific bib-pickup shuttles from Millau.
- What kind of terrain should I expect?
- This is a technical trail race with steep limestone climbs and descents. Trail shoes with aggressive lugs are mandatory for the December clay and rocks.
- Is breakfast provided on race morning?
- Most hotels in the area provide 'Breakfast Sportif' upon request, but the race village also offers local Roquefort-based snacks pre-race.
- What is the mandatory gear for this December race?
- Required gear usually includes a thermal base layer, waterproof jacket, whistle, survival blanket, and at least 1 litre of water due to cold conditions.
- How do I get to Roquefort-sur-Soulzon from the nearest airport?
- Fly into Montpellier (MPL) or Rodez (RDZ). A rental car is essential as public transport to the village is extremely limited.
- Can I pick up my bib on race morning?
- Usually, bib collection is at the Roquefort Société cellars on the day before and the morning of the race, but arriving early is critical.
