Chez les femmes, les Françaises à la 2e place et les Suissesses à la 3e complètent le podium. Chez les hommes, le classement s’inverse, l’argent allant aux Suisses et le bronze aux Français.

Ce sport se développe de plus en plus en compétition, c’est la première fois qu’un relais en Championnats d’Europe réunit autant de pays sur la ligne de départ. Intense, dynamique, rythmé, le parcours a séduit les participants, sans cesse confronté à leurs concurrents. Les coureurs ont pu tester leur endurance, leur technicité et leur résistance au stress.
