La Riche周辺の10Kレース

The Courir Santé begins at the gymnasium in La Ville-aux-Dames, near Tours. Its Sunday-morning program includes a family race, a 5 km, and a 10 km. The family run starts at 9:30, the 5 km at 10:00, and the 10 km at 10:45. Both timed races are qualifying events, with the 5 km and 10 km carrying Bronze labels. The 10 km is the main competitive event, serving as a qualifier for the French championships and supporting the departmental championship. This event has been held for at least 29 editions, establishing it as a local fixture. Recent reports highlighted Manuel Amand’s 10 km win, indicating the race attracts serious regional runners alongside families and shorter-distance participants.

Courir santé is a city road race in La Ville-aux-Dames, Indre-et-Loire, France, scheduled for mid-October. Participants can choose between a 5 km or 10 km race, both following a single loop course through the town. This event functions as a charity race. Separate race options are available for children and juniors, making the day suitable for families alongside adults participating in the 5 km or 10 km distances.

The La Ronde de Rotomagos begins and ends at the La Chataigneraie 2CV Cross circuit in Pont-de-Ruan, a village in Indre-et-Loire within France's Centre-Val de Loire region. This mid-October running event offers short and middle-distance options: a 5.5 km route, a roughly 10 km trail, and a longer 23.4 km trail, with some sources also listing 15 km and 31 km versions. The shortest race provides a manageable entry for casual runners, while the longer trail routes incorporate forest paths and sufficient elevation to offer more than a flat run. The courses traverse paths and forest tracks around Val de l'Indre, Pont-de-Ruan, Sache, Thilouze, Artannes, and Monts. The 10.6 km trail includes approximately 200 m of elevation gain, and the 23.4 km route gains about 300 m, indicating the challenge stems from rolling terrain rather than significant climbs. Les Tamalous de Rotomagos, with local volunteers, organize the race, which is closely connected to the surrounding communes rather than a large urban start. Finishers are awarded prizes crafted from local products, contributing to a small-community atmosphere once the forest running concludes.

Les Foulées Ludois is a Sunday in October running event in Le Lude, organized by the local association Courir au Lude. The main program begins in front of the town hall with two timed road races: a 9.5 km option and a 19 km option. Later, a free, untimed 1 km race for children aged 8 to 12 and a 5 km race-walk linked to Octobre Rose follow. The route uses the town center and the paths of the Château du Lude park, offering runners streets and park trails instead of a simple out-and-back road course. The event is small but growing; 130 runners completed the two main races last year, and organizers anticipate around 240 for the upcoming edition. The Octobre Rose race-walk attracts a wider audience, with hundreds registered, pink bandanas for the first 400 participants, and all entry fees or donations directed to the Ruban Rose association.

Bol d'Air de Saint-Avertin is an early-year cross-country and trail event held in Saint-Avertin, located in the Indre-et-Loire department of France's Centre-Val de Loire region. Organized by SAS Triathlon, it is designed as a family-friendly race rather than a specialist-only competition, featuring routes typically ranging from approximately 6.5 to 13 kilometers. The event also offers walking and Nordic walking options, alongside children's and junior courses, attracting more than just runners focused on timing. The routes traverse the Cange and Onze Arpents area, with the Domaine de Cange park serving as the race's focal point. Several hundred participants typically attend; one recent edition saw 1,800 trail runners, including amateurs, groups of friends or colleagues, and seasoned competitors. Both licensed and non-licensed runners are eligible, starting from the Cadets age category, and bicycle escorts are prohibited on the course. A night race was introduced, offering a different atmosphere after dark while maintaining the core concept: enjoying an outdoor run at the year's beginning.

The La Pyjama Party Trail in Tours sends runners out after dark in pajamas, with a headlamp treated as required kit.

Starts are staggered through the evening, from the children's races and walkers at 7:00 PM to the 5 km at 8:00 PM, with La Gentilhommière listed as the start and finish site. The mood is less serious than the distances suggest: costumes are strongly encouraged, and many runners swap technical tights for fleece sleepwear, with unicorn pajamas a popular choice.

Joggintours, a local association with 155 members, organizes the event, and the evening has included a group warm-up, children's makeup, fire-eaters, and fireworks.
