Tchalou des Ruelles is a road race held in Thuillies, Hainaut. The start and finish are at the Tchalous hall, near Beobank Arena on Rue de Donstiennes. It is part of the Challenge de jogging de la Province du Hainaut and features two distances: 11.49 km and 6.17 km.

The organizer classifies the climbing difficulty as normal. Participants earn points in the challenge based on placement and time. After ten Category C races, the ten best results are counted, with a 20-point bonus for later starts. The organizer also provides changing rooms, showers, baggage drop, advance entry, and same-day registration.
