Semi-Marathon & 10 km de Bourg-en-Bresse 2027

The Semi-Marathon & 10 km de Bourg-en-Bresse is a road race held in March in Bourg-en-Bresse, located in the Ain department of Auvergne-Rhone-Alpes. Participants can choose between a 21.097 km half marathon and a 10 km race. The 10 km course consists of one loop, while the half marathon covers two loops. The start line is situated at the corner of Allee des Glorieuses, placing the race within the town center instead of on a distant out-and-back course. The route winds through the streets of Bourg-en-Bresse, appealing to runners who prefer an urban setting with familiar landmarks. This event has been a fixture on the local calendar for many years, with over forty editions of the half marathon having taken place. The program has also featured a Semi-Handisport race. L'Entente organizes the event, and the town offers visitors a notable attraction after the race: the Royal Monastery of Brou, a historic Gothic monument in the center of Bourg-en-Bresse.
