ボーヴェ周辺のHalf Marathonレース

La Villepreusienne is a night race series held at V Park in Villepreux, a town in the Yvelines located 20 km west of Paris. This location provides a distinct character: Villepreux lies in the direct line extending from the gardens of Versailles. Thus, the event connects a small-town starting point with the open plain beyond the palace grounds. It provides four race choices, with distances and formats designed for runners and walkers of various skill levels. The 5 km Urban Trail takes place in the town center, suitable for those seeking a short, brisk run with an urban atmosphere. The 10 km nature route follows a manageable loop across the Versailles plain, and the 10 km walk offers participants the same opportunity to explore without the competitive aspect. The 21 km trail is the more demanding option, intended for more experienced runners desiring a longer night race near Paris.

Foulée Suresnoise takes over the streets of Suresnes for a two-day weekend in early October, offering races for adults and children instead of a single start time. The schedule includes a half marathon and 10 km, a 5 km, and children’s races of 3 km, 1.5 km, and 750 m. The shorter races and children’s events are held on Saturday afternoon. The half marathon and 10 km start on Sunday morning from 8:30. The event, now in its fiftieth edition, maintains a family atmosphere alongside competitive racing, and adds to the course atmosphere with four fanfares throughout the day.

The TVTC, short for "Tu viens tu cours" or "You come, you run", is a trail event held in Villiers-Saint-Frédéric, located in the Yvelines area west of Paris. It takes place in early October and offers adults three main choices: a 7 km Nordic walk, a 10 km trail run, and a 21 km trail run. The routes wind through a natural forest setting, making it an off-road excursion rather than a city race. The 10 km course is designed for runners seeking a demanding yet achievable challenge, while the 21 km is suited for more seasoned trail runners. Separate courses are available for children and juniors, extending the day's activities beyond the adult competitions.

The Transquar de Beauvais begins at the Hotel de Ville in Beauvais, located in the Oise department of Hauts-de-France. This event incorporates road running and Nordic walking within the city center. The program includes 5 km, 10 km, and half marathon distances, along with Transkids for children. Consequently, participants range from families and walkers to runners competing in the full 21.1 km. It typically occurs near the year's end, with the next edition scheduled for early October. The event has been organized annually since 2012. The routes wind through Beauvais, utilizing city streets and public green areas like Parc Kennedy and Square Jules Briere. Participants will run along sections near the Therain, the Avelon, and the Saint-Quentin river. The half marathon route includes three challenging hills. The course highlights local landmarks through ground markings, such as the 15th-century Tour Saint-Lucien and Saint-Pierre-de-Beauvais Cathedral, constructed between the 12th and 16th centuries. The finish line is situated before the Jeanne Hachette statue and its mirror fountains. Many participants remain afterward to view the cathedral's stained glass, astronomical clock, and 14th-century medieval clock, or to sample local specialties such as ficelle picarde and flamiche aux poireaux.

Trail La Domaniale takes place in Saint-Cloud, west of Paris, within the national forest of Saint-Cloud in early October. Runners can choose between 12 km and 21 km distances, or an 8 km Nordic walk in the same setting. The 21 km route includes 340 meters of elevation gain, the 12 km has 200 meters, and the 8 km walk has 130 meters, meaning even the shortest option involves climbing. The event, organized by volunteers from UAS Saint-Cloud, limits participation to 450 bibs for the 21 km, 350 for the 12 km, and 200 for the walk. The course winds through forest, nature, and the edges of town, avoiding remote mountain terrain. La Domaniale also benefits Fondation Arthritis, donating 1 euro from each bib, a portion of profits, and offering an additional donation option during registration.

The 100 Km de la Somme et Marathon d'Amiens Métropole is a road-running series held in Amiens, in the Somme department of Hauts-de-France, in early October. The program includes three distances: a 100 km ultramarathon, a marathon, and a half marathon. The half marathon is open to solo runners or three-person relay teams. The event began in 1979, and the 100 km race holds a strong reputation in France because of its distance, history, and position on the long-distance calendar. All three routes follow the Somme river, traveling between Amiens, the surrounding countryside, and Picardy villages. The marathon turns around at Bourdon, while the 100 km continues west to Pont-Rémy. Runners pass locations such as Picquigny, Breilly, Condé-Folie, and Longpré-les-Corps-Saints. The courses combine urban sections with greenways, paths, riverside stretches, and open natural areas, creating a sense of a long journey through the Somme valley rather than repeated laps.

La Spinassienne takes runners through Épinay-sur-Seine, north of Paris, featuring a half marathon of just over 21 km as its primary event. The program also offers a 10 km race for participants aged 16 and up, and a 3.8 km race open to those 14 and older. Starts are staggered throughout the morning; the 10 km begins at Espace Lumière, with the shorter race commencing shortly thereafter. The course follows city streets and extends along the Seine's banks, presenting an urban river run rather than a rural excursion. Certified by the French Athletics Federation, the race provides pacers for the 10 km and half marathon, along with aid stations offering water, sponges, and fruit. Prior to each start, participants can engage in a music-led group warm-up at the municipal sports park. One euro from each bib benefits Les Restos du Coeur, and prize money is awarded to the top five men and women in the half marathon.

La Cavale des Écureuils is a trail race in Villers-en-Arthies, a village in Val-d'Oise in the Île-de-France region of France. It is an autumn event, with main race options around 10 km and 21 km, and some listings giving the full range as 5 to 22 km. The name means “The Squirrels’ Gallop,” and the race uses the phrase “a tree-to-tree race.” The route is within the Parc Naturel Régional du Vexin, a 71,000-hectare protected area north-west of Paris with marshes, forests, fields, and marked hiking paths. Runners choose this event for a nature-focused trail day instead of a city road race, and walkers participate as well. The race supports a charitable cause, uses CHRONO33 timing, and offers live GPS tracking via an app and fan zone.

La Spinassienne is a race day in Épinay-sur-Seine, Seine-Saint-Denis, featuring a half marathon as its main event, complemented by shorter options. The program lists a 21 km race, a 10 km race, a 3.8 km race, and children’s races of 400 m, 600 m, and 1,000 m. The half marathon begins in the morning, followed by the 10 km starting from the Espace Lumière. This event is organized by the Club Sportif Multi sections d’Épinay-sur-Seine and the town hall, and it holds Fédération Française d’Athlétisme certification. The course guides runners through Épinay-sur-Seine and along the Seine riverbanks, with sections also taking place in the Parc Municipal des Sports. It accommodates club runners aiming for fast times and local amateurs preferring a shorter distance, while children compete in their own events. The race, which had a hiatus for several years, was revived in 2018. Awards are structured to maintain competition: prizes for the top five men and women in the half marathon, cups for the top three men and women in the 10 km and 3.8 km, and medals for young participants.

The Bois-Guillaume Half Marathon is a road race held in mid-October in Bois-Guillaume, a town near Rouen in Normandy. The primary event is a 21.1 km half marathon. A 10 km race is also held that morning, alongside a Joëlette Cup for teams running with a person with a disability. Both the half marathon and 10 km begin at the Espace Guillaume le Conquérant. The main races are popular and can sell out. The 10 km is open to a broad range of participants, from beginners to experienced runners, including youth and seniors. The half marathon course consists of two 10 km loops. It includes urban sections within Bois-Guillaume and a portion that goes through the Forêt Verte. This design offers more variety than a simple town-centre race while maintaining a straightforward format for participants and observers. The Joëlette Cup covers the 10 km distance and has no entry fee. The race also supports Octobre Rose, allowing runners to contribute to the league against cancer. A partner village with food vendors is located behind the Espace Guillaume le Conquérant.

Bois-Guillaume’s race day begins at Espace Guillaume le Conquérant with two options: a 10 km run at 9:30 and a half marathon at 9:50. The 10 km follows a simple, low-difficulty route suitable for many participants, whereas the half marathon presents a greater challenge, consisting of two 10 km circuits within Bois-Guillaume. The half marathon features a section through Forêt Verte, offering the longer race its most notable part. This event marks its 37th year and typically attracts a full field, bringing together club athletes, local residents, and newer runners for the same morning. A free Joëlette Cup is also held on the 10 km course, where teams of up to five participants run with an individual with a disability. The race collaborates with Octobre Rose, allowing participants to contribute to the cancer league during registration, and a partner village with food is set up near the starting area.
