La Putéolienne takes place in early March in Puteaux, located in Hauts-de-Seine, west of Paris. This is the event's 22nd year, offering participants a timed 5 km road race, a 5 km Nordic walking option for walkers, and a 3 km obstacle course for families.
All three courses are single-loop. The 5 km road race is the most popular option. The course combines city streets with a public park. The event has a small, local atmosphere, with over 100 participants in the last edition, rather than a large crowd.
