Corrida Pédestre du JHM

Every September, the Corrida Pédestre du JHM brings over a thousand runners and walkers to the streets of Chaumont, located in France’s Haute-Marne department. This event features an urban race series, not just one start. The program includes a 10 km race, a 3 km race, children’s races, and a color run. The main 10 km is considered a significant sporting event on the local calendar. The day centers on Chaumont, with a start village at Daniel Louis stadium and entertainment areas before the races commence. The event welcomes families, company teams, associations, club runners, and casual participants. There are group challenges for businesses and associations, age categories for younger runners, and bib pickup on-site for late joiners. The color run provides the event's most distinctive ritual, featuring costumes, a group Jerusalema dance, and a simultaneous powder throw. Spectators can find prime viewing locations at places like Café Parisien and K32 Factory.
