La nuit des mangeurs de pied 2026

La Nuit des Mangeurs de Pieds is an 11 km night trail race at L’Isle Sainte-Marie in Sainte-Ménehould. It starts at 18:06, written as 6:06:06 PM by the organisers as a playful Halloween nod to 666. The race is built around running after dark, costumes, and a slightly spooky atmosphere rather than a standard road-race feel. The Rotary Club de Sainte-Ménehould organises the event, with the race supporting a charity cause and asking runners to show up for fun as well as solidarity. Participants are encouraged to come in costume, and recent editions have included music from FitDance51 on Île Sainte-Marie. The event has reached its sixth edition, so it is still fairly local in scale but already has its own rituals: night running, Halloween dress-up, volunteers, partners, and a good-cause focus.
