Lille de départ

Lille de départ uses the trails and paths of Lille's Parc de la Citadelle instead of city streets for its participants. This Sunday event offers three straightforward choices: a 5 km walk, a 5 km run, and a 10 km run, which can be completed individually or as a relay. The event supports the association Pour un nouveau sourire, making the day a combination of physical activity and charitable giving. The atmosphere is intimate and welcoming, featuring stalls, entertainment, food and beverages, and refreshments at the finish line. Previous finisher numbers have increased from dozens to several hundred, indicating a local event that is growing significantly while maintaining its community spirit.
