Ronde de Noël de Salles is a Christmas-themed road race held in Salles, a town in Gironde, Nouvelle-Aquitaine, France. It takes place around mid-December and offers both 5 km and 10 km race options, with both routes remaining within the town limits instead of venturing onto trails.
The 10 km distance is the more popular choice, attracting a larger number of participants compared to the 5 km. Costumes are encouraged, making the event lean towards a festive local gathering rather than a strictly competitive, timed competition. Recent participation saw over 200 runners in the 10 km and over 100 in the 5 km. The organizer's sentiment captures the atmosphere: “In Salles it will be a party!”
