La Savernoise is a pink night race in Saverne, a town in Bas-Rhin in France’s Grand Est region, held in October from the Parc du Château des Rohan. It is a women-only road event focused on breast cancer support, with about 5,000 participants gathering in pink to run or walk together after dark.
The format is simple: a 5 km run or a 5 km walk through the city center. The route goes through Saverne’s old streets, with its historic heritage and medieval walls part of the backdrop. Costumes are encouraged, but the purpose stays clear: proceeds go to Saverne hospital, ICANS, and INSERM for breast cancer research, and the city of Saverne organizes the event with local partners.
