Tour de Ballainvilliers

The Tour de Ballainvilliers is a town road race held in Ballainvilliers, a commune in Essonne within the Île-de-France region of France. Taking place in early October, it features 10 km and 5 km races, alongside separate children’s and junior runs. The 10 km event is the primary focus, and the race supports a charity cause, distinguishing it from a typical local competition. The routes are single-loop road races through the town, indicating a compact community event rather than a point-to-point run in the countryside. Chip timing is managed by ADEOCHRONO. Participants can utilize an app offering live GPS tracking, a fan zone, and safety alerts for supporters to follow runners. The combination of short adult distances and youth races ensures accessibility for club runners, casual participants, families, and those new to running.
