La journée des féminines

La journée des féminines is a women-focused charity event in La Rochelle, on France’s Atlantic coast in Charente-Maritime. It is held in mid-October and offers participants two options: a 10 km walk or a 60 km road bike ride. The event supports breast cancer prevention and is presented as a cause that supports women. It is less a standard race day than a participation event, with walking and road cycling sharing the same program in La Rochelle.
