On Sunday, November 3rd, our Clichy sports team took on the challenge for the second consecutive year by participating in the Ekiden de Paris. A relay race covering a total distance of 42.195 km in the heart of the capital, starting at the foot of the Eiffel Tower. What a dream setting !
We can only applaud their outstanding performance, as the team crossed the finish line in 3 hours, 56 minutes, and 46 seconds, ranking 1058th out of 1264 teams.
A big thank you to Bruno, Jessy, Safa, Oren, and Monira for their exceptional determination and endurance.
A special mention to Hugues, our last-minute hero, who joined in on the big day without prior preparation and completed the Clichy team with flying colors.

And now, see you in 2025! 😊
For our colleagues in Lyon and Strasbourg, the Ekiden also takes place in your cities. So, are you ready to take on the challenge ?
