Les foulées de l'arche - Tours 2026

Les Foulées de l'Arche is a road race in Tours Nord, located in the La Petite Arche commercial zone. The race village, start, and finish are situated in the Décathlon Tours Nord car park on Rue Georges Méliès, giving the event the feel of a local running gathering rather than a rural course. Participants can select a 5 km race for a first attempt or a measured pace, a 10 km race intended for more seasoned runners, or a 2 x 5 km relay for teams of two. The series also features children’s races for ages 5 to 13, offering 700 m and 1,400 m distances, allowing families to compete on the same day without placing younger participants in adult categories. This is the event's tenth edition, and sign-ups are managed via the official Les Foulées de l'Arche website.
