Join the corporate partners who are supporting the Institut Pasteur's research through sport: bikes or running shoes at the ready!
- Get pedaling with AG2R to support Pasteurdon
In 2015, Institut Pasteur partner AG2R La Mondiale launched "Vivons vélo", a sporting and charity program featuring an application dedicated to cycling with a focus on well-being, enjoyment and keeping fit. This app is a great way of progressing in cycling as it gives you attainable, challenging goals which you can tackle while raising money to support the Institut Pasteur's research.
"Vivons vélo" also invites cyclists to take part in bike rides in several towns and cities throughout France, including Paris. For this 10th anniversary campaign, AG2R, a Pasteurdon partner since 2008, is inviting budding cyclists to come along for a unique bike ride through Paris in the footsteps of Louis Pasteur. This ride will take cyclists to the entrance of the Institut Pasteur on Saturday October 8, during Pasteurdon weekend.
Many of you already flexed your cycling muscles during the "Roulons solidaires" campaign in the cafeteria in July. So you'll love getting together with others, as the Institut Pasteur's ambassadors, and discovering this great new route through the streets of Paris, specially created to support the Institut Pasteur.
- Embody the values of Pasteurdon as you challenge yourself in the "Défi Run"
In partnership with Assu 2000, the Institut Pasteur is offering you a chance to take part in the Paris Assu 2000 "Défi Run". No fewer than 100 spots have been reserved for Institut Pasteur staff who are tempted to have a go at this unique challenge!
On Saturday, October 15, the Défi Run will take place in Paris in partnership with Assu 2000, which has chosen to support and promote the work of the Institut Pasteur for the third year running.
One of the great features of this original obstacle course is the involvement of famous ambassadors - Laury Thilleman, Ladji Doucouré and Ariane Brodier.
The aim is to run 5 or 10km in the bois de Vincennes, while successfully negotiating 4 challenge areas.
