On Sunday 19 November, after 194 hours of racing, the 2017 edition of NO FINISH LINE ended in the presence of HSH Prince Albert II. This year’s numbers were higher than ever:

12,967 runners and walkers (1,078 more than last year).
436,963 kilometres traveled, 37,000 km more than the 400,000 km target and over 44,447 km more than last year.
436,963 Euros will be donated to projects for sick and underprivileged children (1km = 1 euro). Over 3.5 million euros have been raised since the beginning of the NFL.

The success of the event is due to hard-working participants, volunteers and support from gracious sponsors.

NO FINISH LINE is a charitable cosmopolitan race, a friendly meeting place, a great vehicle for mobilizing the many competing teams (367 this year) and a personal challenge for athletic individuals.

The Prince’s Cup was awarded to Fausto Parigi (Italy) for 1,026 km traveled. He exceeded the 1,000 km mark on Sunday at 4am. He is the 5th participant to have surpassed 1,000 km since the creation of No Finish Line. He is also the 2nd non-French runner to have won the race in 18 years. But the big NFL record is still 1,041 km (2012) and is yet to be beaten!

3rd place: Robert Miorin with 924 km.
