Run & Bike de Franqueville 2027

Run & Bike de Franqueville is a team run-and-bike race held in Bizanos, within the wooded grounds of the Château de Franqueville. Section Paloise Pau Triathlon organizes this event, now in its third edition. Close to 500 participants compete, with the format centered on pairs: two teammates share a single mountain bike, alternating between running and cycling. The event features two primary distances: La Franqueville, a 21 km S-format race, and L’Aneto, an 11 km XS-format race. The challenge extends beyond physical condition; teams must strategize their transitions, the intensity of their efforts after dismounting, and how the cyclist can support the runner. Local accounts characterize it as welcoming yet challenging, reflecting a competition where collaboration is as crucial as pace.
