The decline in the health crisis allows Odysséa to find the crowd.
For its first French edition of the year, the famous race against breast cancer brought together more than 15,000 participants this Sunday morning in Nantes.
Registrants, recognizable by their pink t-shirts, could participate in timed events ranging from 5 to 10 km.
Departures and arrivals took place in Cours Saint-Pierre, a stone's throw from the cathedral.
Apart from the race itself, one of the highlights of the event is always the spectacular collective warm-up, all in rhythm and in good spirits.
