La strasbourgeoise 2026

La Strasbourgeoise is a pink-shirt charity event in Strasbourg, featuring a women-only 5 km road run and a mixed 5 km walk or Nordic walk over the same distance. It is part of Octobre Rose, the French breast-cancer awareness campaign, and has drawn Strasbourg’s largest group of female participants since 2010. The route passes through the center of Strasbourg, making the day feel more like a city gathering than a sports event. Costumes are permitted, contributing to the event's wave-of-pink appearance. The run is for women and requires either a health prevention course or an FFA license, while the walk is mixed and does not require a medical certificate. Both are open to participants born in 2012 or earlier, with younger children allowed on the walk if accompanied by a registered parent.
