High-energy Gazelles

OFFICIAL START, PROMENADE DES ANGLAIS, NICE

There was excitement in the air across the Promenade des Anglais this Saturday March 17, 2018.

The participants in this year’s Rallye Aïcha des Gazelles du Maroc, fresh and motivated, arrived at the Théâtre de Verdure in Nice, site of this year’s Start Village, early this morning.

The Brigade d’Agitation des Tribunes street percussion group launched the festivities in the late morning, contributing to the friendly, bustling atmosphere with their percussive rhythms.

The sun finally made an appearance, to the delight of the Gazelles and the crowd of well-wishers and curious onlookers. It was a magical setting for the 143 participants, overexcited and impatient to cross the official start line.

To help set the mood and release the nervous tension in the air, a wild and crazy zumba session was held facing the sea. The smiling Gazelles danced up a storm, showing incredible energy and enthusiasm. Which is a good thing, as they will need plenty of energy during the upcoming competition in the heart of the Moroccan desert!
