Two acxias consultants, Albane and Katie, were at the start of the 45Th Edition of "20 km from Paris", this Sunday, October 8, under a radiant sun and by summer temperatures, alongside 22,000 other elite or amateurs. Parts of the Trocadéro to arrive at the foot of the Eiffel Tower, via the Star, the Dauphine Gate, the Bois de Boulogne, the Porte de Saint-Cloud, the quays of the Seine and the Royal Bridge, they completed the route in 2:02 for the first and 1:50 for the second. Unlike last year, when a Frenchman won, it was Kenyan Elvis Chebor Tabarach who first crossed the finish line after 57 minutes and 32 seconds of racing. True to the values of Acxias (perseverance, 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 customers, to keep pace and reach their objective. Bravo to both of them!

To reach this highlight, they crisscrossed the Parisian streets, passing by emblematic places such as the star, the Dauphine Gate, the Bois de Boulogne, the Porte de Saint-Cloud, the peaceful quais de la Seine and the majestic royal bridge. Their efforts and endurance carried them through this demanding route, reaching the finish line in 2 hours and 2 minutes for Albane, and in 1 hour and 50 minutes for Katie.
