The Corrida de Saint Philibert de Grand Lieu, known as the Phil'Run, is a Christmas-season road race held in Saint-Philbert-de-Grand-Lieu, Loire-Atlantique. Organized by AR Sud Lac before the year-end holidays, it features short urban races instead of a long-distance event. The main Père Noël race covers 10.4 km, the Course des Lutins is 5.2 km, and two free children's races offer a 1 km option for the youngest participants and a 2.5 km course for ages 12 to 13. The route remains within the town, beginning and ending on Boulevard de la Moricière, across from the Jean-Rostand school, and then proceeds through local streets. The event originated from the club's aim to establish a road race that could attract a larger audience than their previous September race. The Christmas timing aligns with the French corrida tradition: city races with a festive atmosphere and numerous costumes. The term "corrida" has Portuguese origins, where it simply denotes a race. AR Sud Lac benefits from substantial local support, with almost 500 licensed club members and approximately 120 volunteers assisting with the event.
