With their running shoes on and in the midst of the Monte Ponoig Trail race, two firefighters from the Provincial Consortium assisted another participant after suffering a fall during the event.

The off-duty personnel did not hesitate for a moment to show their solidarity by reporting the accident and attending to the runner amidst the last remnants of snow until the rescue team arrived.
