Since 1996, during the Ascencion week-end, the NucWorkers are runing a 350 km length
MaxiMarathon, somewhere in Europe.
Those runners, ambassadors for their colleagues of nuclear industry, want remind to the
public and to the decision makers the many advantages, for the environment protection, jobs
creation and energetic independance of nuclear energy.
This event aims to materialize the message of a tecnical progress share by everybody, which
constituate the success of electronuclear industry.
The nucworkers whose word is too rarely given, wish to make understand to the public opinion that
behind the conception, the building and the maintenance of nuclear industry installations,
there are women and men competents and serenes, proud of their tecnical and industrial
creations, women and men which deserve our confidence.
This event should also demonstrate to the policies makers that the nucworkers represent a
