Dear difteurs,
For pink October, Anne-Sophie and Fleur energetically mobilized for the fight against breast cancer as part of the defi_delles.
This inspiring challenge raised awareness of this disease, which affects almost one in 8 women in their lifetime, with 61,214 new cases estimated in 2023. Breast cancer remains, sadly, the leading cause of cancer death in women.
But what exactly was the Défi d'Elles?
For 3 days, from October 18 to 20, 2024, participants took on an incredible sporting challenge in the magnificent landscapes of Seignosse and Soorts-Hossegor.
Part of the funds raised will be donated to the Jeune et Rose association, which works to prevent breast cancer around 3 key projects:
👉 Les Tétonnantes: uniting young patients affected by the disease.
👉 Alerte Rose: raising awareness among healthcare professionals.
👉 Télététon: conducting innovative prevention initiatives for women and young girls.
The participants covered 45 km in 3 days in an atmosphere that was 100% challenge, 100% solidarity and 100% whaou!
🏔️ 15 km Trail
🏃♀️ 10 km Run & Paddle
🚴♀️ 20 km Mountain Bike
🧘♂️ Wellness workshops: yoga, surfing and more.
It was a weekend filled with solidarity and exceeding of self for a cause close to our hearts.
A big thank you for your precious support and difts!
