1985 was the last year that Athletissima took place in Vidy at the Pierre de Coubertin stadium. Markus Ryffel, one of the regulars at the meeting, ran his best time in the 25 lap race. Beaten by the Japanese Seko, Markus Ryffel delivers a frank declaration of love for the meeting after his feat in the 10'000m: "I admire the audacity of those who dared, launched and made this meeting grow. The Pierre de Coubertin stadium will always have something magical about it! ”
