Christian Dior Couture participates in the Odyssea race in Paris for Pink October 2024
At Dior, we are designers of responsible futures.
This month, the Odyssea race in Paris marked the launch of #PinkOctober2024, with Christian Dior Couture proudly participating in this powerful international movement.
Nearly 700 #DiorTalents raced the 5 and 10 km distances to raise awareness and support the funding of #BreastCancerResearch. Congratulations to Joséphine Colin, Client Development & Retail Marketing, who topped the women’s 10 km ranking for the second consecutive year, and Bertrand Besnard, Watches Studio Manager, who placed first in the men’s 10 km classification.
Joséphine shares: ‘Crossing the finish line felt incredibly empowering, not just as a personal achievement, but knowing that every step was contributing to raising awareness for such an important cause. Raising funds for breast cancer through this event is incredibly meaningful, and to be able to combine my passion for running with the opportunity to make a difference is truly inspiring. Breaking my own record made it even more special, but the real victory is being part of something bigger that helps the #BreastCancerResearch.’
Bertrand adds: ‘Seeing the wave of pink every year to support #BreastCancerResearch gives a lot of hope and support to the women affected and their loved ones. The spirit of solidarity between runners, spectators and volunteers makes this festive moment a highlight of the #PinkOctober. I felt proud to be part of it, and grateful to the House for carrying this message, as it allows to mobilize more #DiorTalents to raise awareness on #BreastCancerResearch on a global effort.’
