Les illuminés de Meyzieu

Les illuminés de Meyzieu is a nature running event held at Les Voiles du Grand-Large in Meyzieu, with races taking place in Miribel-Jonage park on a Saturday in November. The event offers runners several race options: 5 km, 10 km, 16 km, and 25 km, in addition to children's races held earlier in the afternoon. The 10 km race was introduced for participants seeking a distance longer than 5 km but shorter than 16 km. The longer races commence later in the day compared to the shorter ones. The routes have the organizers as flat and entirely on nature paths. OpenRunner maps are available for each distance, and minor route adjustments may occur following adverse weather conditions. Race headquarters are situated at Les Voiles du Grand Large on Rue Victor Hugo. Here, runners can collect bibs, register on-site, utilize a ticketed bag check service, and access post-race amenities such as first aid, a refreshment stand, and osteopaths. Parking is restricted, leading organizers to suggest bus 95, carpooling, and an additional parking area behind the Calabres school. The event relies on local volunteers and concludes with a medal ceremony.
