Pink October - La Strasbourgeoise

" La Strasbourgeoise dixième édition ! Cette course féminine et marche de 5 km contre le cancer du sein attire chaque année plus de 10 000 participants. Une merveilleuse occasion de faire du sport pour la bonne cause. "

Breast Cancer Charity Events Since it was created in 2010, La Strasbourgeoise has raised more than €406,472 for the fight against breast cancer. This year a pink wave is washing over the city with races, canoeing, roller and bike tours, a culinary march, combined with measures aiming to inform women and raise their awareness about screening, and more. All donations raised through registration will go toward research and patient support through ICANS – the Strasbourg Europe Institute for Cancer Research. So in October, let’s get moving!

Because currently in France, 1 out of every 8 women are at risk of breast cancer, and because the best way to deal with this disease is to anticipate, prevent and educate, Strasbourg mobilises every year with a big charity race called La Strasbourgeoise.
