More than 500 people involved in The Terreras and Zuniga in Mountain Crossing largest in the history of the Games. (04/10/2010)

Could say many things about the Traverse Mountain Guadalentín Sports Games held at night and early morning hours of Saturday and Sunday, we could say, for example, which was the thirty-second, as many as Sports Games were held, could describe the natural landscape that surrounded the test could highlight the good atmosphere that was felt at this appointment.

But one thing that stood out in this edition of the Journey was the number of participants: more than 500 people took to the hills to enjoy the ultimate test of the Games sui generis and that the organizers have touted as the best edition history.

After visiting in 2009 the village of Morata, the crossing this time traveled to the lands north of Lorca, specifically to Las Terreras and Zuniga, known for their large populations landscape.

The football field in Las Terreras was the starting point of the Crossing family of 5.5 kilometers, and the Short of 16 kilometers.

Zuniga departed from the Long Journey of 21 miles, converging the three tests on arrival to the football field in Las Terreras.

In this natural setting, the teams visited dozens of spectacular landscapes such as the Barranco de la Hoz and the southern foothills of the Sierra del Madroño, home to spectacular pine trees who witnessed the journey of the participants between aromas of rosemary.

Teams throughout life, new faces and entire families took to the hills in this test so lovely and special.

And in the Traverse Mountain does not win who arrives first at the goal or make the trip faster, but who demonstrates an improved accuracy of travel time each way, trying to keep an even pace.

To this end, participants must bring their walking gait to the terrain accurately calculating the map distance to be traveled, the difficulty of the journey and the pace at which you must walk.

How could it be otherwise in this landmark trial, after the effort of crossing the teams received on arrival at the camp a few crumbs and a hot chocolate alleviated fatigue and gave encouragement to the hundreds of participants to share anecdotes during the journey, chatting animatedly at the gates of the tents before getting to sleep.

With the sunrise, and again on foot, all the teams enjoyed a luncheon and awards ceremony, which crowned the most accurate teams in each category, and was the culmination of a sporting event that was also living , where making friends and the best atlas to find the most beautiful corners of our vast municipality.
