Course du coeur 2026: Organ Donation, a Collective Cause
The 2026 edition of the Course du cœur was another success for the cause of organ donation and the Dassault Group team. Our 16 runners finished first in the rankings for the sixth time on Sunday, March 29, 2026.
The Course du cœur is a sporting challenge, but above all a powerful human experience. This adventure was marked by remarkable solidarity and team spirit, which enabled the team to overcome the various obstacles and difficult conditions of the race. In total, the team covered 800 km over four days and four nights between Paris and Bourg-Saint-Maurice–Les Arcs. The interactions between the transplant recipients and the residents of the towns they passed through helped raise awareness of this important cause.
The team’s patron, Elodie Brunot—an aerospace engineer and creator of content on aviation, space, and military topics—and the team’s sponsor, Ary Plagnol, Executive Vice President of Industrial Operations at Dassault Aviation, were an exceptional asset throughout the event. Their support and encouragement were invaluable to the runners throughout the race.
Congratulations to all the runners who took part in this major event promoting organ donation. We look forward to seeing you all again next year for the 2027 edition!
