Cavaillon周辺の10Kレース

The 10 km de la Cité des Papes is a road race held in Avignon, located in the Vaucluse department of Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur, France. Taking place in early October, it offers participants two primary distances: the well-attended 10 km course or a 4.5 km alternative. The event also features races specifically for children and juniors, with the children’s race accessible to those aged 9 and up. The race begins in Avignon’s city center, guiding participants through the city’s core before leading them to the banks of the Rhône river. The Club d’Athlétisme Avignon is the organizer, supported by local partners such as the city of Avignon and the Vaucluse departmental council. This event is also connected to the Nocturne des Papes, and past results and photos are available, with archives extending back to 1930.

La Foulée Ressource takes place in October in Aix-en-Provence, offering three options: a 5 km run, a 10 km run, or a 5 km walk/hike. All three events begin at 15:00 with identical entry fees. The 10 km race is certified by the FFA, providing an officially measured course for those seeking a timed road distance beyond a charity event. Aix Athlé Provence organizes La Foulée Ressource. The event's purpose is straightforward: to fund the Centre Ressource in Aix-en-Provence, a support center for cancer patients focusing on wellbeing and therapeutic care. The center relies on La Foulée Ressource for approximately 90% of its operational funding. This means participants are directly contributing to the center's survival, not just making an additional donation. The event has completed twelve editions, accommodating club runners, casual participants, walkers, and supporters within its afternoon schedule.

La Foulée Ressource is a charity road race held in Aix-en-Provence, located in the Bouches-du-Rhône department of southern France. It takes place in early October, originating from the Les Milles business park. Participants can choose between 5 km and 10 km races, or a 12 km walk for those who prefer not to compete. The event's motto is “Courir, ça a du sens” — running with a purpose. The route commences near the McDonald’s within the business park and concludes at the Centre Ressource. This race benefits the Ressource association, which provides wellbeing and therapeutic support to individuals affected by cancer. The connection is significant, as the Centre indicates that the majority of its operations rely on this event. Consequently, the race is structured around solidarity as much as athletic performance. Runners, walkers, supporters, and local attendees unite for a morning focused on a shared cause.

Les Foulées Pélissannaises begins in Pélissanne, a village in Bouches-du-Rhône, Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur. This established local race series takes place in early October, featuring road running, trail running, walking, and children's events. The schedule includes short races for young children (450 m and 700 m), a 3 km race, a 5 km youth course, an 8 km walk, a 10 km race, a 16 km race with 400 m of elevation gain, and a 29 km Trail XS with 1000 m of elevation gain. The courses traverse the countryside surrounding Pélissanne and the Costes massif, resulting in steeper terrain for the longer distances compared to the shorter village routes. The 8 km walk, named La Marche de la vigne à l'olivier, highlights the local vineyards and olive trees. The 10 km race offers a faster pace with 115 m of elevation gain, while the Trail du Calabrun and the 29 km race provide a more challenging experience for experienced trail runners. Children are included with La Ronde des Pitchouns for ages 5 to 14, alongside several very short races.

The event offers participants several options, ranging from a 5 km route for children to a 29 km trail race featuring 1000 meters of elevation gain.

Tavel Nature Trail is an October trail-running event held in Tavel, a wine village in the Gard department of southern France. The races utilize the vineyard terrain of Tavel rosé, with routes following local paths, garrigue tracks, hilly ground, and wooded sections instead of road loops. The primary options are a short trail of approximately 12 km with about 450 m of elevation gain and a longer race of around 20 to 22 km with roughly 750 m of elevation gain. The longer race is known as Le 20 de Tavel, offering both solo and relay formats. The shorter race is identified as La Vinaventure or La Vinaventaure in various listings. Certain editions also feature a 10 km walk, Randonnée la divine, making the day accessible to non-runners as well. The event is organized by JOG'IN NATURE TAVEL, providing aid stations and changing facilities. One recent edition saw just over 300 participants.

The Course du pays d'Apt Luberon - Gargas is a running event held in Gargas, located in the Pays d'Apt Luberon region of southern France. It begins in the morning, with a listed start time of 07:45. Runners can choose between 5 km, 7 km, or 10 km distances. The shorter courses are not mountainous; the 5 km route includes 20 meters of elevation gain, and the 10 km route has 40 meters. This suggests the event is more of a local run through Gargas rather than a challenging hill race, offering options for participants seeking a quick 5 km or a longer 10 km run.

Souvenir Jean Moulin is a trail and walking event held in mid-October in Salon-de-Provence, located in the Bouches-du-Rhône department of southern France. Participants follow routes through the Provençal countryside. The event lists a 10 km route, and older race information also mentions a 15.5 km foot race. The course is designed as a nature excursion rather than a competitive road race, offering two route options through a rural setting near the town. The event is named in honor of Jean Moulin, a prominent figure in the French Resistance, lending a memorial aspect to the race alongside its local club-running atmosphere.

The Ronde des Vergers begins at the Moulin à huile, Maison Leydier, in Saint-Martin-de-Crau, a town in Provence situated near the Camargue and the Alpilles. Held in October, it features 5 km and 10 km races, along with walks covering the same distances. This variety accommodates runners, walkers, families, and individuals seeking a brief nature excursion instead of a lengthy road competition. The course winds through olive groves, peach orchards, and sections of the Crau Nature Reserve, a unique protected steppe environment in Europe. While significant elevation changes are not noted, the natural ground requires some preparation. The event, now in its third year, has become a way for participants to explore the Crau steppe on foot.

LA TOU'RUN is a trail running event held in La Tour-d'Aigues. The race village and bib pickup are located at Place Jean Jaurès, in front of the Château.

The 16 km and 21 km races begin in the morning, followed by the 10 km and the walking options. Additionally, a solidarity walk of 6 or 10 km is available between La Tour-d'Aigues and La Bastidonne, with reduced prices for children. All proceeds benefit Institut du Sein Marseille Provence, giving the event a charitable purpose. Awards are presented to the top three men and women in each race. Each female participant receives a rose, and a buffet with drinks awaits runners at the finish. Advance registration is required, as on-site sign-ups are not permitted and places are limited.

The event also supports a charitable cause, with 1 euro from each entry fee donated to local associations.
