This Sunday at 4 PM, after 98 hours of racing, the 2nd edition of the 2019 No Finish Line Nice concluded, with Marthe Villalonga and Clément Brun, an actor known, among other roles, for Section de Recherche, completing the final lap.
The objectives were shattered!
● 4,908 registered participants (well beyond the target of 4,000).
● 70,713 km covered, (+ 10,000/60,000 expected). The target of 60,000 km was reached at 11 AM on Sunday, April 28.
● 70,713 euros will thus be donated to fund projects for sick or disadvantaged children (1 km = 1 euro).
The NO FINISH LINE Nice is enjoying growing success because it’s a generous race accessible to everyone, a friendly meeting place, an excellent internal mobilization tool for the numerous teams in competition (184), a personal challenge for individual participants, and a sought-after sporting event for seasoned runners.
See you in spring 2020 for the next edition.
