For running enthusiasts - or for those who'd like to try their hand at a timed race: now's the time to challenge yourself and reserve your bib for one of the current races, to try and beat your personal best or simply cover a given distance.
Very popular with runners, 5- and 10-kilometre races offer a great warm-up for the sport. For a first race, it's best to tackle a 5-kilometer course, which, while not as long as a half-marathon or similar, is generally very demanding. In fact, it's over this distance that you run the fastest! Next, you can opt for a 10 km race number, to challenge yourself a little on what is, once again, a particularly demanding distance.
In Paris, there are many races to take part in several times a month - particularly in spring and autumn, the prime seasons for this discipline - not forgetting the races in the Ile-de-France region. In the forest, on the road, through the gardens of a château... Put on your sneakers and running gear: ready? Get set!
