Nicolas ascends the 5,000-meter Mont Blanc despite the challenges
“I had to complete my ascent of Mont Blanc, but the bad weather made it too dangerous. Given that Mont Blanc stands 4,806 meters high, I made several ascents, climbing a total of 5,000 meters over a six-day period. The landscapes were incredible! I’ll be back in 2025 to make another attempt!”
Nicolas Aygat, Automated Systems Maintenance Manager, Paris-Charles de Gaulle

“I climbed the rocks and battled the volcanic sand dust storms in pitch black, even with the headlamp! At an altitude of 2,800 meters, the gusts were too powerful. It’s frustrating not to have made the last 345 meters, but I’m really proud to have gone as far as I did!”

Frédéric and Josselin take on the Mascareignes race on Réunion Island
“The Mascareignes is a 70-kilometer race that climbs 4,000 meters. After 33 kilometers, the problems started. My feet hurt and I had to make the decision to give up after 57.3 kilometers. But I learned a lot, so I’ll be better prepared for next time.”
Frédéric Macron, Asset Management Director, Operations Branch
“It was an intense race. The road, paved with volcanic stones, was very slippery. The constant support of the Réunion people, even late at night, was incredible. After 19 hours of racing, I managed to arrive with a big smile, because I was so proud at having completed the challenge.”
Josselin Landry, aircraft firefighter with the Aircraft Rescue and Firefighting Service at Paris-Charles-de-Gaulle Airport.
