Courir Contre La Maladie - Puilboreau 2026

Courir Contre La Maladie - Puilboreau is a Téléthon charity run held at the château de la Tourtillere in Puilboreau. The association Courir contre la maladie organizes the event, with Denys Simon assisting in its leadership. This marks the 21st edition of the race, designed for both runners and non-runners. Families and friends are welcome, and organizers anticipate around 500 participants. The local support for the race is significant. Over 60 marshals are required, recruited by Puilboreau associations through personal connections. Partners also contribute to the event. Crédit mutuel has a two-year partnership with the organizing association, offering participants a gift. The bakery O Beaulieu des Pains provides refreshments for runners and also organizes the “galettes solidaires” fundraiser, which previously raised 1,500 euros for AFM Téléthon.
