Two consultants d'Acxias, Albane and Katie, were at the start of the 45Th edition of “ 20 km from Paris », this Sunday, October 8, under radiant sunshine and summer temperatures, alongside 22,000 other elite and amateur runners. Starting from the Trocadéro to arrive at the foot of the Eiffel Tower, via the Etoile, the Porte Dauphine, the Bois de Boulogne, the Porte de Saint-Cloud, the Quais de la Seine and the Pont Royal, they completed the course in 2h02 for the first and 1h50 for the second. Unlike last year, where a Frenchman won, it was the Kenyan Elvis Chebor Tabarach who crossed the finish line first, after 57 minutes and 32 seconds of racing. Faithful to Acxias values (persistence, commitment, etc.), Albane and Katie were able to deliver the same efforts as during the Projects carried out on a daily basis with the agency's clients, to keep pace and achieve their objective. Well done to both of you!
