Milla Urbana de Banyoles
The Milla Urbana de Banyoles is a one-mile road race held on Passeig Antoni Gaudí, adjacent to the Club Natació Banyoles facilities. It takes place on an autumn afternoon, focusing on the classic terrestrial mile distance of 1,609 meters. Separate races are organized for children, adapted athletes, under-16 runners, and the main men's and women's fields. The athletics section of Club Natació Banyoles organizes the event, which now attracts approximately 150 athletes across all categories.
The mile course follows a closed urban circuit comprising two large laps and one shorter lap, allowing runners to remain close to spectators throughout most of the race. The program also features a 5 km popular race, introduced after the event evolved beyond its initial structure. The race originated as an internal Club Natació Banyoles athletics activity to signal the start of a new season, subsequently growing into a local race day for club runners, younger age groups, and visiting athletes from clubs including GEiEG and Cornellà Atlètic.
Ronde du Kercorb - Chalabre
The Ronde du Kercorb in Chalabre offers two mountain-style trail runs. Participants can select a 10.5 km course with 400 meters of elevation gain or a 21 km course with 900 meters of elevation gain.
The 10.5 km race begins at 08:00, followed by the 21 km race at 08:30. This marks the 8th edition of the series. The significant elevation in both routes ensures they are more than just an alternative to road running.
2Seo portel des corbières trail - Portel-des-Corbières
The 2SEO Portel des Corbières Trail begins at Terra Vinéa, a wine-tourism site in Portel-des-Corbières, Aude, southern France. This October trail running event is organized by Sun Stages Endurance, in partnership with the Portel-des-Corbières town hall and Terra Vinéa. The event features three timed trail races: a long course of approximately 25 to 28 km, a 15 km course, and a 6 km option for less experienced participants.
The two longer races include a passage through the Terra Vinéa mine, a distinctive element of the event. The 6 km Trail Portelais route remains outside the mine and involves around 114 m of elevation gain. The longer routes traverse the Portel-des-Corbières and Sigean area, with listed climbs of about 400 m for the long race and 310 m for the 15 km race. Participants not running can join the Marche Rose, a 4.5 km walk or Nordic walk around Portel-des-Corbières. A portion of the event supports Octobre Rose breast cancer screening and research, and Sun Stages Endurance also collaborates with AFDAIM 11 to enable residents with disabilities to participate through sport.
Trail des trabucayres - Maureillas-las-Illas
Trail des Trabucayres is a Sunday-in-October trail event held in Maureillas-las-Illas. It features a 15 km race, a 5 km race, and an 11 km hike. Now in its third edition, the event has expanded its program beyond adult races. Following requests from families, the organizers introduced two children’s races: one for ages 6 to 10 and another for ages 11 to 13.
The children’s races take place through the village streets, while the adult program offers the short trail, longer trail, and hiking options. Visually impaired participants also compete, accompanied by a guide on a special circuit. The association Courir en vallées sauvages, led by Gérald Frère, organizes the race. Entries have been increasing, with the previous edition attracting 485 participants. Organizers anticipate 550 adults and approximately 30 children in each youth race for the upcoming event.
La folle furieuse Carcassonne - Aude
La Folle Furieuse Carcassonne is a short obstacle race at Lac de la Cavayère, near Carcassonne in Aude, with starts planned from the morning. It is a 5 to 6 km adventure run built around 25 obstacles, so the day is more about climbing, sliding, crawling, splashing, and laughing than chasing a road-race time.
The route uses the lake setting directly, with a passage through the water, muddy sections, and large inflatable obstacles on the program. The event is pitched at friends and families, with a race village and DJ adding to the loose, party-style feel, and local coverage describes it as a wild but family-friendly obstacle course now several editions old.
Les Foulées du Parc - Narbonne
Les Foulées du Parc is an annual running event held in the Parc des sports in Narbonne, southern France. Organized by ACNM, the local athletics club, it features two official road races: 5 km and 10 km. Both distances qualify for the French championships, attracting local runners alongside athletes aiming for fast times and federation standards. Over 1,000 runners are anticipated, supported by approximately 100 ACNM volunteers managing race operations.
The courses are nearly flat, favoring speed over climbing ability. The 10 km race begins on Avenue Maître Hubert-Mouly, while the 5 km starts on Avenue Jean-Antagnac. Both races conclude within the main stadium on the athletics track. The competition is expected to be strong: the previous 10 km champion is returning to defend his title, an Olympic marathon runner from Paris is using the event for preparation, and a young French record-holder is competing in the 5 km.
Course halloween somail - Saint-Nazaire-d'Aude
The Halloween Course au Somail is a 5 km running and timed Nordic walking event held in Saint-Nazaire-d’Aude, located in Occitanie’s Aude department. Organized by CORSA Club Omnisports around Halloween, the event begins at Glacier du Somail. The morning schedule includes registration, the Nordic walk, and a children’s race.
The course is a single 5 km loop following the Canal du Midi. Participants will pass under the canal bridge and return on the opposite side. This event is festive and supports a charity, making it suitable for runners, Nordic walkers, families, and individuals seeking a short, local race instead of a long-distance competition.
Course pour movember - Lézignan-Corbières
The Course pour Movember is a local charity run held in Lézignan-Corbières, located in the Aude department of southern France. The primary event is a 10 km run crossing the pine forest, complemented by a 5 km walk option for those seeking a less strenuous participation. This run is associated with Movember, the November initiative dedicated to men's health, and commences at 9:30 AM.
The Union des commerçants de Lézignan is responsible for organizing this event, framing it as an opportunity to run or walk for a worthy cause. The organization maintains a straightforward, community-focused approach: a forest run, a shorter walk, an accessible entry fee, and essential information provided via the Lézignan merchants' association website and email.
Les sentiers de Germain - Baixas
La Foulée Du Mas - Cabestany
La Foulée Du Mas is a 5 km event in Cabestany, Pyrénées-Orientales, southern France. It takes place on a Sunday morning in late November, with the run and the walking hike starting at 10:00.
The format includes a 5 km running race and a 5 km randonnée for those preferring to walk the same distance at a relaxed pace. The organizer, LA FOULEE DU MAS, presents this as a local community event rather than a large, multi-distance race festival.
Cims de Girona - Rocacorba
Cims de Girona - Rocacorba is a night trail running series near Girona focused on three uphill-only efforts. Participants ascend Sant Miquel, Els Àngels, and Rocacorba. The clock records only the ascent time, making the competition resemble a series of mountain time trials rather than a standard trail race.
The series is in its thirteenth year and maintains the original race order, allowing the league to conclude with a more relaxed final gathering. Each finish line provides essential aid like water, nuts, and sweets. The final timed climb leads to the Santuari dels Àngels, where runners receive concluding refreshments, awards, and a participant prize raffle.
Cursa de la Dona
The Cursa de la Dona is an urban race for women in Vilanova i la Geltrú, starting and finishing in Plaça de la Vila. It focuses on popular and family sport, welcoming everyday runners and local families alongside competitive athletes.
The race is part of the Olimpicament Run Club project, which encourages women’s involvement in running, physical conditioning, and sport within the city. Beginners can participate with more experienced runners, and the event promotes active lifestyles, well-being, and equality.

About 5K races in Perpignan
Perpignan Training Notes
Perpignan hosts 44 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 old centre between la Basse and la Têt when they want easy kilometres before work. One loop is 31 km with 12 m of gain. Another loop is 26 km with 73 m of gain. 35 km. The brief names no dedicated run club, so locals use race weeks for company. Corrida de Noël de Perpignan, 10 km de Perpignan, Festi'run Perpignan, Mémo Run 66, and Ronde Ceretane 6km keep the calendar honest.
Locals ride the Plain of Roussillon for Z2, tempo, and those quiet base miles that make the climbs hurt less. The Pyrenees sit west of town, so riders go that way when they want real climbing and gran fondo legs. The Corbières massif sits north, and the scrubland roads give a different kind of punch. Canigou gives the skyline its proper target. The brief names no dedicated cycling club, so riders build the scene around events and regular groups. 66°Sud la Cyclo, La Perpignanaise, and UCI 66 Degrés Sud work as anchor events for road riders. Bike and Run de Perpignan keeps the mixed crowd close too.
Spring suits runners and cyclists best because the air feels lighter and the race calendar wakes up. Autumn gives the same good window, with enough warmth for steady Z2 and enough bite for intervals. Summer in Perpignan gets very hot and extremely dry, and temperatures can reach 30°C, so locals go early, keep rides coastal, and save hard sessions for shade or evening. Winter stays fairly mild, but the Tramontana makes the place feel colder than the number says. The cold season brings most of the precipitation, so runners watch footing and riders respect wind on exposed roads.
