Race2Paris 2009
Paris, the Eiffel Tower, the Champs-Elysees, a hunchback in a bell tower suffering from unrequited love for some French bird...
Sitting a mere 875 km to southeast of Edinburgh, Paris is a great destination for a weekend away from the winds of a cold Edinburgh February and the toils of second semester. What could be better than going to Paris for a weekend, GOING FOR FREE!
The ESCA Race2Paris is your chance to get to Paris for nothing and raise some money for your favourite charity. The concept is really simple, get yourself in a team (at least two including one male), get some sponsors, make yourself a colourful banner and get ready for the strangest, hardest and most enjoyable few days of the year!
The race starts from a secret Edinburgh location and finishes at a friendly Parisian hostel, where you will be able to catch up on some much needed sleep! All you have to do to get there is stick your thumb out, plead with motorists and travel companies, walk if you have to - just get to Paris before anyone else.
