Thierry's media coverage

[Scott]

This is the coverage that Thierry has has been getting on the website of French sporting newspaper L'Équipe. It's comfortably the biggest mainstream sports website in France - my resident Francophone tells me that it's probably equivalent to the BBC Sport website.

I'm afraid Google Translate has been rather lyrical in places but you can probably get the gist - pretty good coverage for a minority sport! I particularly like the "La course d'orientation, c'est quoi ?" box at the bottom

I reckon some people would be needing a "counsellor" after that middle final!

Good find Scott. Hopefully we'll get similar coverage in the British Press for our relay gold......
