The Masters division is run for over 40's in the men's division and over 35's for the ladies division.
There were six masters in total competing in this event, 5 men and 1 woman. Competing nations were France, Great Britain and Italy.
Cecilia Valcepina from Milan set a new Italian record in the Ladies 35-39 years, 1000m distance with a 2:09.322 which took almost 11 seconds of her previous record. The Italian records are presently not ratified, but are being kept by Stephano Dotti and also by the author of this site.
Overall, 46 year old Joel Martin from Club des Sports de Chamonix took out the Masters division in this event, which consisted of a 1000m, 500m and an 800m super-final.
This event generally marks the commencement of the northern hemisphere season, so from here in, hopefully there will be more updates on masters events around the globe for season 2008/2009.
