On Saturday, May 24, the town of Asnières-lès-Dijon hosted the 2025 edition of the Parcours du cœur. The goal of this event? "To inform, give advice, and promote daily physical activity to protect your heart and, generally speaking, be in good health," explained Pierre Lescure, the organizer of this event , in our columns of May 21. "All profits from the day are donated to the French Federation of Cardiology," he emphasized.

The organizer revealed to us that they "hoped to exceed the €5,000 raised last year." He had set the target at €6,000. And the bet paid off! €6,240 was raised and donated. This sum is the largest ever raised since Pierre Lescure began organizing this event in 2017, which is held in the Norge et Tille community of communes.

These funds will be used for "research, to improve cardiovascular surgery and medical treatments," says Pierre Lescure. On Tuesday, June 10, a symbolic check presentation took place at the Asnières-lès-Dijon town hall, attended by numerous elected officials, members of the cardiology medical sector, partners, and volunteers who contributed to the success of this event. As for the 2026 edition, it is already scheduled for Saturday, May 23 in Remilly-sur-Tille.
