Ready to run or walk in the footsteps of French history? As you know, the town of Saint-Denis is home to a royal necropolis in its basilica, housing the tombs of numerous kings and queens, from Dagobert to Louis XVIII.

You can also choose between a 10-kilometre race, a 5-kilometre performance race or a stroll version,"La Belle Vadrouille", open to all, and even children's races for the little ones the day before! A weekend of popular running designed to perpetuate the legacy of the Olympic and Paralympic Games , with courses laid out along emblematic sites and a finish on the mythical purple track at the Stade de France!
It's a great way to measure up to the best runners and admire the beauty of the historic center of Saint-Denis and the Parc de la Légion d'Honneur! There's plenty of entertainment in the race village, making for a warm and festive day.
Since 1993, the Saint-Denis Émotion association has organized the Voie Royale, an international half-marathon in Saint-Denis, a 10km and a 5km sports/health race. In 2024, the year of the Games, it was offered in a new format, "Les Grandes Courses". In 2025, it merges with the Grand Marathon.
