La Course aux Flambeaux
La Course aux Flambeaux lets you run with fire, lighting up the night. Dash through the darkness, guided by torches, in a memorable evening that becomes a torch parade.
Course des bornes frontières - La Flamengrie
La Course des Bornes Frontières is a road-running event in La Flamengrie, a village in the Nord department of northern France. The main races are 5 km and 10 km, both starting at 10:30 AM, making it a compact local race day rather than a long-distance festival.
The program also includes youth races over short distances (0.5 km, 1.4 km, and 2.8 km), plus a 9 km walk for those who wish to participate without racing. Results are published separately for the youth races, the 5 km, and the 10 km, indicating a community event accommodating children, regular road runners, and walkers.
Bazan'court en rose - Bazancourt
Bazan'court en Rose is an October race day in Bazancourt, Marne department, France, focused on Pink October and the fight against breast cancer. Participants can select a 5 km or 10 km run, or opt for an 8 km walk. Cristal-Union and the Bazancourt town hall co-organize the event.
The event offers a straightforward, local format: two short road races and a walk, all supporting a health cause instead of focusing solely on elite competition. Having reached at least its fourth edition, the event is established beyond a single fundraiser. Ultratiming manages race results, providing a timed structure for runners while ensuring the day remains accessible to walkers and casual participants.
La Course du Bois du Cazier
La Course du Bois du Cazier begins at the Bois du Cazier in Charleroi, a UNESCO World Heritage site in Hainaut, Belgium. This event offers mixed road and trail running, with adult races around 6 km and 16 km, and children's runs of 500 meters and 1 km. The shorter adult course is just over 6 km, and the longer one is a little over 16 km, meaning the listed distances are approximate.
The route departs the historic mining site, passing through Marcinelle via paved sections, slag heaps (terrils), and forest paths. Portions of the course overlook Charleroi, providing more variety than a typical city road race. The event accommodates both adults and children. Adult participants receive a bib, electronic timing, aid stations on the course and at the finish, a medal, and a raffle entry. Children get a bib, a snack at the finish, and a medal.
Bazan'court en Rose
Bazan'court en Rose is a local October race day in Bazancourt, Marne, France, focused on breast cancer awareness. Cristal-Union and the Mairie de Bazancourt co-organize the event, offering 5 km and 10 km running distances.
An 8 km walk is also available, allowing participation without racing. The event aims for a festive and welcoming atmosphere, uniting participants around a cause that organizers note affects many people.
Reims Champagne Run
The Reims Champagne Run is an October race weekend held in Reims, located in France's Marne department within the Grand Est region. This event is the renamed version of Run in Reims, now offering road races, trail races, a relay, and children's events, moving away from a single-distance format. The race distances range from the 3 km Course des P’tits Rèmes for children up to the 87 km Sacré Trail. Included are a 5 km, the 10K de Rémus, the Semi des Rois half marathon, a 42 km Sacré Trail, and a four-person Sacré Trail relay.
The road races highlight central Reims instead of directing runners immediately out of the city. The 10 km and half marathon are FFA-certified, utilize start corrals and pacemakers, and pass notable landmarks such as the Porte de Mars, the Basilica Saint-Remi, and Notre-Dame Cathedral. The longer Sacré Trail distances introduce a more challenging nature-running aspect to the weekend. Consequently, the same event caters to children, novice 5 km participants, club runners aiming for a specific road time, relay teams, and ultra runners seeking an extensive day on the trails surrounding the Champagne region.
Corridas Hivernales
Course pédestres de Cuirieux
Course pédestres de Cuirieux is a small village running event in Cuirieux, in France’s Aisne department, with its main race distances at 5 km and 10 km. It is usually listed as an October event, and the format is simple: walkers go first, children have their own races, then the 10 km and 5 km runners start later in the morning.
The programme also includes shorter races, with listings showing options such as 2 km, 4.7 km, and 7 km alongside the main distances. The walking routes use the same practical distance pattern, with 5 km and 10 km randonnées for people who want the community day without racing. Maison d’Animation Rurale organizes the event, and the race has enough local history to have reached a 39th edition.
Trail'loween - Nouvion-sur-Meuse
Trail de la vallée de la thure by night - Cousolre
The Trail de la Vallée de la Thure by Night is a 12 km night trail race held in Cousolre, Nord department, Hauts-de-France. Typically run in early November, the main race begins at 18:30, requiring participants to use headlamps from the start. The 12 km course includes a 270-metre climb, offering a challenge suitable for both new trail runners and seasoned athletes.
The route crosses forest paths, steep ascents, technical terrain, concealed roots, and areas near Cousolre's former quarries. It presents a demanding trail run, not a straightforward road race, featuring descents that challenge balance and speed. RRunning Cousolre organizes the event, fostering a local and welcoming atmosphere where night-trail regulars and newcomers share the course. Post-race, participants receive homemade soup and substantial refreshments, aligning with the event's straightforward concept: compete intensely in the dark, then recuperate together.
Foulées rethéloises - Rethel
Les Foulées rethéloises is a race day in Rethel, Ardennes, centered on a 10 km adult race through the town streets. RETHEL COURIR organizes the event, which includes children’s races for ages 6 and up, a ranked 4.5 km discovery race, and the main 10 km race for licensed and non-licensed runners from the cadet category onwards.
The 10 km follows a new three-loop course, starting from Place des Tivolis at the foot of Promenade des Isles. Bib pickup and the finish area are located at Salle Atmosphère. The main race also functions as a qualifier for the French Championships, attracting runners aiming for a standard as well as local participants in a town race. Children participate for free, the shorter discovery race offers a timed option for newer runners, and the day concludes with results and a tombola draw.
Trail zig zag de montcy notre dame - Montcy-Notre-Dame
The Trail zig zag de Montcy Notre Dame is a small trail event held in Montcy-Notre-Dame, located in the Ardennes. It features two short trail races: a 7 km and a 15 km, both commencing at 10:00. Additionally, there is a 7.5 km walk beginning at 09:00.
Both trail races have 200 meters of elevation gain, meaning even the shorter distance includes significant uphill sections. This event is categorized as Trail découverte. The registration fee for each trail race is 3 EUR, and the event is organized by Charleville Mézières Athlétisme.

About 5K races in Charleville-Mézières
Charleville Training Notes
Charleville-Mézières hosts 46 5K races in 2026 within 80 km of the city centre — upcoming dates, recurring series, and other races nearby, all in one place.
Locals run the river Meuse when they want steady Z2 and easy base miles from the city centre. Charleville-Mézières Athlétisme keeps the track honest, with Wednesday sessions from 18h00 to 20h00 at Stade du Petit Bois and Friday sessions from 18h00 to 20h00 at Stade J M Baudoin. La Macérienne athlétisme and Running Club Carolo-Montcéen add more local lanes. Les crêtes baraquines gives trail runners a proper target. Sedan-Charleville anchors the calendar, and Decarun'carolo, Corrida de Charleville-Mézières, Prix pédestre de Mézières, Natura'carolo, and Rimbaud city trail keep legs sharp.
Locals ride the Meuse by Bike when they want rhythm instead of noise. The Trans-Ardennes path follows the old towpath, and that 123 km section between Sedan and Givet makes a clean endurance day. The river Meuse gives you bends, villages, and long turns where the bike feels like the right tool. Union Vélo Club de Charleville Mézières is the local name for racing and events. The climbs sit with the low mountain Ardennes range. Signposted mountain bike trails in the Regional National Park, the Forest of Sedan, and the Marfée region give cyclocross legs and singletrack habits a place to work.
Summer gives Charleville-Mézières the best training window, but the city still keeps you honest. July can feel warm or hot, and July nights can still drop below 5°C, so locals keep a layer close after late intervals. May and September can bring intermittent frosts, which makes the good season feel short. Winter changes the work for runners and riders. The Ardennes range traps moisture, and long, cold, gloomy weeks make Z2, track sessions, and towpath rides feel heavier. Temperature inversion brings strong cold snaps, so locals pick the cleanest hours and stay consistent.
