Institut Pasteur team out in force for this year's Assu 2000 "Défi Run"

Last weekend, the 2015 "Défi Run" obstacle course took place in Paris in partnership with Assu 2000, which has chosen to support and promote the work of the Institut Pasteur.

 

 

With coaching provided by sports stars Laury Thilleman, Ladji Doucouré, Mehdi Baala and Marc Raquil, this event saw an impressive 35 people – scientists and donors – turn out for the Institut Pasteur team. The members of Team Pasteur successfully navigated their way around the four challenge areas dotted along the 10km course in the Bois de Vincennes.

 

The gutsy sportsmen and sportswomen put their talents to the test as they walked along beams, crawled under nets and rope-climbed up a slope.

 

This event has currently raised more than €36,000 for the Institut Pasteur's research.

 

Thanks and well done to the entire team for a great display of sporting prowess!
