Give Me Fiv 2026

Give Me Fiv is a solidarity running event in Parc de Parilly, between Vénissieux and Bron in the Lyon metropolitan area. It is the first race in France dedicated to medically assisted reproduction, and its name points to FIV, the French abbreviation for in vitro fertilization. Runners can enter solo or as a duo, and the event also leaves room for people who want to walk with a symbolic purpose rather than chase a time. The routes follow the wooded paths of Parc de Parilly, so the race stays inside a large green park rather than pushing through city streets. Each entry sends money to fertility-related medical work: 5 euros from every solo registration goes to Fondation HCL, while 12 euros from every duo registration supports reproduction projects at HFME. The message is direct: run together, make IVF less taboo, and show support for people going through the long process of trying to have a child. Afterward, participants are pointed toward Lyon itself, from Vieux Lyon and its traboules to a bouchon meal, the Rhône riverbanks, or the climb up to Fourvière.
