Les Foulées Fretinoises 2026

Les Foulées Fretinoises is a road race held in mid-July in Fretin, a town in Nord, Hauts-de-France, part of the Lille metropolitan area and French Flanders. This city running event offers two distances: 5 km for amateurs and 10 km for those seeking a greater challenge. The course follows urban roads in and around Fretin, designed for accessible local competition rather than a long countryside route. It is a well-established popular race with a festive atmosphere, and its playful slogan, “I am Fretin not to be there!”, conveys its lighthearted tone.
