The School of Pharmacy is rallying behind Courstache 2025

Published on in Clubs, Student Life

Once again this year, the Montpellier School of Pharmacy took part in the Courstache, a charity run dedicated to the fight against cancers affecting men. Offering a choice of two routes (4 km or 8 km), the event drew a large crowd in support of this public health cause.

No fewer than 62 students represented the faculty as members of the AS PHARMA HUMA team, the result of a collaboration between the associations AS Pharma and Pharma Humanitaire. Their dedication was rewarded with numerous prizes, reflecting both their athletic performance and their team spirit:

  • Time Trial: Fastest team on each course
  • Moustache Challenge: Team Up with the Fastest Women
  • Student Challenge: Best student team on each course
  • Best costume: Some members of the PharmaHuma association stood out with a Smurfs costume
  • First-place finish for a woman in the overall standings

In addition to the students’ performances, several faculty members and researchers from the School also took part in the Courstache race. Among them, the IBMM team stood out in particular by winning the title of fastest team on the 8-km course for the second consecutive year. Also worth noting is the outstanding performance of one of our faculty members, who took second place in the men’s division this year.

The School of Pharmacy extends its warmest congratulations to all the dedicated students and faculty members, and thanks the AS PHARMA HUMA team for its energy and commitment to this charitable initiative.
