グルノーブル周辺の5Kレース

La Foulée de Crossey takes place at the foot of the Chartreuse mountains, with trail races centered in Saint-Etienne-de-Crossey and on paths in Saint-Nicolas-de-Macherin and Saint-Aupre. The series provides three distances: 9 km, 14 km, and 24 km. The short race involves 200 m of elevation gain, the middle option has 450 m, and the long race gains 1000 m, allowing participants to select from a brief local trail run to a more demanding mountain-edge course. The 9 km route suits all levels, remaining fast and demanding, with forest sections near La Croix Saint-Denis designed to elevate heart rate. The new 14 km race offers more distance than the short course without the full 1000 m of climbing; it has moderate elevation changes until the Montmain woods, then requires repeated efforts. The 24 km route, also new in layout, passes La Croix Saint-Denis, Montmain, and the Monure hill, and is part of the Challenge du Pays Voironnais Trail Series. This event marks its 40th edition, lending this local Chartreuse-foot trail gathering significant history while remaining accessible.

Marche Rose is a 6 km solidarity walk and run in Bagnères-de-Luchon, beginning at Parc du Casino at 10:00 AM. Participants can move at their own pace, welcoming walkers and casual participants alongside those focused on time. The event raises funds for breast cancer research, organized by Association ELLES, a general-interest organization. This is noted as the fifth edition, indicating a recurring local event.

The Foulée de Drumettaz-Clarafond takes place on an autumn morning in Drumettaz-Clarafond, Savoie. The program includes trail running, road running, walking, and children’s cross-country races. The main events are the 18 km Trail de la Parchale, featuring 660 m of elevation gain, and the 9.7 km Ronde des Fou(r)s, primarily on roads. A 9 km popular walk follows mostly trails. For younger participants, there are 3 km, 1.5 km, and 0.8 km cross races, with the two shorter distances unranked. The event emphasizes village festivities alongside the races. Participants receive coffee before the start, and aid stations offer entertainment. The day concludes with an aperitif and a tartiflette, available for the first 500 servings. Local traditions include distributing 150 loaves baked in communal ovens via lottery. Adult participants are given a bottle of Savoie wine, and all finishers receive a personalized souvenir. Prizes are awarded not only to top runners but also to costumed participants, groups, and the clubs that travel the furthest or bring the most members.

The 5 km trail offers a more moderate challenge with around 60 m of climbing. The Comité des Fêtes de la Bâtie Divisin is responsible for organising the event, which maintains a deliberately straightforward setup. It includes aid stations, showers, and a welcoming village atmosphere designed for runners, walkers, families, and groups of friends seeking a rural outing rather than a large-scale urban competition.

The primary races are for cadets and above, with additional races for children. The 5 km race begins at the stadium, proceeds along a paved road loop, and concludes on the stadium track.

Les Foulées d’Alpespace is a road race held at Alpespace in Porte-de-Savoie, featuring an ultra-flat course designed for fast times.

The organisers describe the course as suitable for achieving personal bests, with GPX files provided for both distances. A Company Challenge is part of the event, taking place over the 5km and 10km, where teams are ranked by the number of runners they register under a single affiliation. Following the race, participants can visit the refreshment station; organisers request that everyone bring a reusable cup. Food will be available on-site via reservation. This event is in its early stages, with its third edition scheduled.

Cross des Châtaignes is a long-running local cross-country and trail event held in the small village of Bresson in Isère, with origins dating back to 1978.

The event includes children’s races over distances of 2.65 km, 1.8 km, 950 m, 500 m, and 350 m.

Trail des Roses is a winter trail race in Moras offering two timed distances: 10 km and 21 km. With a limit of 900 participants, organizers frequently turn away applicants, indicating it's a local-feeling event that consistently fills its capacity. The race is presented as a chance to regain fitness: challenging for those aiming for a personal best, yet relaxed enough for participants restarting their season with companions. The courses feature viewpoints, ascents, and descents that organizers acknowledge will be physically demanding. These routes are in their second and final iteration, offering participants familiar with them a last opportunity to improve their times before the race course is altered. Upon finishing, all participants receive a rose, a beverage choice (beer or other), and a local Moras snack. The post-race gathering is considered an integral part of the event.

The Foulée des Remparts is an October running event in Chabeuil, France, offering two start-line choices: a 5 km race and a 14 km race. Both races commence at 15:00, meaning the shorter and longer fields follow the same race-day schedule. The 5 km presents a less demanding route with 27 metres of elevation gain and a 7 EUR registration fee. The 14 km route features 128 metres of climb and costs 14 EUR. The shorter race is designated as La petite foulée, and the longer race is known locally as La Chabeuilloise. Organized by FOULEE DES REMPARTS, the event has surpassed thirty editions, establishing it as a long-standing fixture in Chabeuil rather than a recent, one-time event.

The 10 Kms de la Bastille is a 10 km trail race held in Grenoble, France, typically in October. Participants can choose between a solo 10 km run or a two-person team event over the same distance. Both options feature approximately 500 meters of elevation gain. For those seeking shorter distances, the event includes a 600 m race suitable for children or beginners, a 1.5 km race for a brief challenge, and an 8 km walk for individuals who wish to enjoy the mountain scenery without competitive running. The race is named after the Bastille, Grenoble's historic hilltop fort overlooking the city at the edge of the Chartreuse massif. This fort, constructed in the early 19th century on the site of older fortifications, is surrounded by cliffs and steep terrain, making it an appropriate venue for a climbing trail race. Runners can anticipate forest trails and natural paths, distinct from a typical flat road 10K, though the event is also presented as an opportunity for conditioned runners to achieve fast times. The competition welcomes participants of all abilities, with the relay format allowing pairs to share the effort, and the shorter races encouraging younger participants to engage in the event.
