On Sunday 18 April 2010, four ICCR staff members took part in the team competition at the traditional Vienna City Marathon. Bernadette Allinger, Louise Beltzung, Jérôme Segal and Michael Schmidt completed the 42.195km in 3 hours and 23 minutes and thus came 72nd out of the 1,435 finishing teams in the “Mixed” class. The real hero of the team was Jérôme, who ran the full marathon distance despite an injury and the fact that he had completed the Paris marathon in 2 hours 49 minutes just seven days before!
Thanks to the beautiful spring weather, the event once again attracted tens of thousands of spectators and the ICCR team will surely be back to set a new team record next year.
