The Issy Urban Trail offers a unique opportunity to explore the city by night through various race formats — whether walking or running. For those seeking a real challenge, there's also the Eliminator: a roughly 3 km loop that participants must complete, with start times every 20 minutes for men and every 22 minutes for women. As the event progresses, the time to finish each lap decreases, and the last competitors still in the race are crowned the winners!

While most races start from the Cité des Sports, the two new family-friendly options set off from Ile Saint-Germain. The Family event features a fun duo race between a child aged 5 to 11 and an adult, while the Teen challenge is designed for young runners aged 11 to 17. There's something for everyone in the family to enjoy! Another exciting addition aligned with the trail's timing is the Cupidon event, where participants can run in costume — solo or as a duo — adding a playful twist to the race.
