KEY-DATES

In 1991, a team of running lovers and athletics clubs managers, led by Jacques Bouyat, a social and cultural worker, decided to organize a Marathon at La Rochelle. The La Rochelle Marathon association is created, and Serge Vigot became its president.
During more than 10 years, Serge Vigot represented the association. In 2005, he died during the Marrakech Marathon. It was hard for the association, but members decided to continue despite everything and to pay tribute to their first president by adding his name to the event.
Today, the event is still running by the association, and claims the driving force of collective commitment : 59 members, 2 employees and 1300 volunteers during the week-end enable to ensure the success of the event, which takes place on the last week-end of november.
