French term

1/2 fond - fond

French to English Other Sports / Fitness / Recreation
Hi,

I was just wondering if anyone would be able to help me with this term. It appears in a market research survey asking people questions about an advert they have seen for a brand of sports shoes. The survey question is "What did you particularly like about the ad?"

The full answer is:
"La renommée de la marque en matière de course à pieds (1/2 fond - fond)"

This is from France and is to be translated into UK English.

I have found another entry in the glossary for "fond et 1/2 fond" but this seems to be a completely different context.

Many thanks for any help you can give!

Kind regards,

Kerryann

No, I didn't find that entry. The one I found was related to construction. I should have tried typing it in as words rather than just figures! Many thanks :)

If you're referring to http://www.proz.com/kudoz/french_to_english/other/371187-cou... the context is the same.
