Mission accomplished for the No Finish Line in Monaco breaking all records to help children in need

The charitable race with a big heart

This Sunday, November 22, 2015 and after a course of more than 190 hours, another edition of the No Finish Line was successfully accomplished. Loyal supporter HSH Prince Albert II accompanied by the carabineers brass band was there to celebrate the largely surpassed goals.

It was a very moving moment when the Prince was honored with two commemorative t-shirts for his little twins.

Records are meant to be broken:

13,617 participants (objective at the start 13,000)
383,179 km (goal 350,000)
383,179 Euros will benefit projects for underprivileged children, as the association Children and the Future will reverse 1Euro per 1km covered.

One more time, the course of generosity and love was a bursting success, thanks to the increased number of participants, the investment of cheerful hard working volunteers and the loyal support from sponsors. The new more varied itinerary in the neighborhood of Fontvieille, going through the beautiful Princess Grace rose garden, was very much appreciated by the participants, representing 183 Monegasque companies with more than 6500 people that make more than 60% of the kilometers each year, plus individuals and experienced runners.
