Gradignan周辺のHalf Marathonレース

Trail des premières côtes is a nature-running event in Saint-Caprais-de-Bordeaux, based at the Gymnase Rabah Khaloufi.

Boojovtt organizes this stop in the Trail des 1ères Côtes de Bordeaux series. The gymnasium serves as the start area, finish area, and meal location, providing a central point for the day: arrive, head out on the course, return, and eat in the same place. Registration is handled online, through a link or a QR code.

La Graves Automnale - Portets is a trail running race held in Portets, located in the Graves wine region south of Bordeaux. Graves Runners 33 offers two race distances, 9 km and 15 km, with the courses winding through the Portets vineyards instead of urban streets. The event originates from a recently formed local running club, established by six members of the town's athletics club. Its president, Mathieu Delas, a Portets resident and real estate professional, transitioned to running after a successful career as a high-level fencer. He now competes in events ranging from half marathons to ultra-trails. Graves Runners 33 comprises approximately 70 members, maintains affordable dues, and holds training sessions twice weekly in the evenings at the local stadium.

The Marathon, Semi & 10K de Bordeaux offers four race distances through Bordeaux: 5 km, 10 km, half marathon, and marathon. The event is held in Bordeaux, Nouvelle-Aquitaine. The shorter races attract large fields, with close to 24,000 participants over the day, and approximately 14,000 runners in the half marathon. Runners begin at the Jardin public and conclude on the quays near Place de la Bourse, by the Miroir d’eau. The course crosses Bordeaux's main districts. The half marathon includes a city-centre section and an initial loop towards the quays and Saint-Michel. After finishing, participants are well-positioned to explore the Garonne quays, Cathédrale Saint-André, the Monument aux Girondins, the Cité du Vin, or enjoy a drink in Saint-Pierre.

Villenave Trail is a January weekend of trail running and timed Nordic walking in Villenave-d’Ornon, south of Bordeaux. Races begin at Espace d’Ornon on route de Léognan.

The Saturday events center on the Château l’Olivier estate, using an 8 km loop for the 8 km timed Nordic walk and the 16 km night trail. The 16 km can be completed solo or as a two-person relay, with the changeover point at the base vie. Sunday features the primary trail distances: 10 km l’Olivier, 20 km la Cactus, and 27 km la Patxi, along with 10 km and 20 km timed Nordic walks. The course is hilly, with organizers stating 80% to 100% of the routes are natural ground, making it a countryside trail event rather than a road race with some off-road segments.

The Semi-Marathon de Bazas-Langon is a point-to-point road race held in Gironde, Nouvelle-Aquitaine, southwest France, in early March, connecting Bazas and Langon. The primary event is a half marathon (21.1 km), with a 12 km option also available, allowing participants to run the Bazas-to-Langon course on race day. The course begins in Bazas and concludes in Langon, crossing the Bazas countryside towards the vineyards near Langon. It features varied terrain, not a flat, straight city course, with approximately 176 meters of elevation gain, 256 meters of descent, and a peak elevation around 128 meters. Forests and vineyard roads shape the route. This event, now in its 36th year, is integrated into the local athletics community via Stade Langonnais Athletisme.

The Marathon du Printemps d'Arcachon begins at the Olympia Theater in Arcachon, located on France's Atlantic coast in Gironde. This spring running event offers three distances: a 42.195 km marathon, a 21.1 km half marathon, and a 5 km race for participants aged 14 and older. Approximately 4,500 runners and walkers participate in each edition. The course remains near Arcachon, crossing its neighborhoods instead of venturing far into the surrounding region. The 5 km route provides a condensed experience of the area, featuring the seafront, jetties, characteristic villas, and pine forest. The marathon involves a total elevation gain of 230 meters, and the half marathon gains 125 meters, meaning neither course is entirely flat. This event succeeded the Marathon des 4 Saisons, retaining Arcachon as its base while establishing a distinct spring identity.

The Foulées Saint-Selvaises take place in Saint-Selve, Gironde, Nouvelle-Aquitaine, each April. Participants can choose from several options: a 10 km trail run, a 10 km walk, a half marathon, and races for children and juniors. The Marathon des Graves association organizes the event, which welcomes participants of all levels, from beginners to experienced racers. The routes combine the town with adjacent natural areas, offering more than just a road race. Recent events have attracted over a thousand adult participants and hundreds of children, with walkers making up a significant portion of attendees. The 10 km race has seen faster times, with a runner breaking 35 minutes and subsequent editions setting new records for both the 10 km and half marathon. Refreshments and music are provided, contributing to the event's atmosphere as a local spring gathering.

The Semi-Marathon de la Presqu'île is an April road half marathon held in Lège-Cap-Ferret, located on the Arcachon Bay side of Gironde in Nouvelle-Aquitaine. The primary race covers the standard 21.0975 km distance. The same event also includes the Randonnée des Oyats, a 11 km walk. Both the start and finish are situated in Claouay, a village on the peninsula adjacent to the bay. Runner participation in the half marathon is limited to 2,000 for sporting reasons, making it a focused event rather than an unrestricted mass participation race. The course primarily utilizes the area's cycle paths, aligning with the peninsula's environment: villages, pine forests, bay-side roads, and the variable weather characteristic of the Bassin d'Arcachon. Recent events have seen approximately 1,700 to 1,800 finishers, with balanced representation from men and women and an average finish time slightly exceeding two hours. The organizers categorize it under Les Courses de la Presqu'île. Race director David Le Goff highlights aspects like bib collection, aid stations, finish-line acknowledgments, and post-race conversations as integral to the event's character. Rain is also a recurring element; organizers once described a wet edition with vivid language, reflecting the race's relaxed and jovial atmosphere.

Les foulées de l'Hourcancilloise is a running and trail race series in Carcans, Gironde, southwest France. The program offers road running distances and trail options: 21 km with 400 m of climbing, 10 km with 150 m, a 20 km trail with 400 m, and an 11 km discovery trail with 150 m. The schedule divides the day into afternoon and evening starts. The 21 km and 10 km races begin first, followed later by the two trail events. The longer races have enough elevation to require pacing, while the shorter 10 km and 11 km formats provide a less demanding option. Aquitaine Triathlon organizes the series.

La Foulée des Sangliers is a nature race in Salles, Gironde, offering 10 km and 21 km distances. Both start at 09:30 from the R. Brun rugby stadium. The routes are mostly flat, with approximately 20 meters of elevation gain, meaning the challenge lies in the terrain rather than ascents. The course winds through forest tracks near Salles, passing duck blinds and old mills alongside small streams. It is part of the Aquitaine running and trail calendar, and with results recorded over multiple editions, it has the feel of a well-established local event.
