Les Foulées du Parc - Narbonne

Les Foulées du Parc is an annual running event held in the Parc des sports in Narbonne, southern France. Organized by ACNM, the local athletics club, it features two official road races: 5 km and 10 km. Both distances qualify for the French championships, attracting local runners alongside athletes aiming for fast times and federation standards. Over 1,000 runners are anticipated, supported by approximately 100 ACNM volunteers managing race operations. The courses are nearly flat, favoring speed over climbing ability. The 10 km race begins on Avenue Maître Hubert-Mouly, while the 5 km starts on Avenue Jean-Antagnac. Both races conclude within the main stadium on the athletics track. The competition is expected to be strong: the previous 10 km champion is returning to defend his title, an Olympic marathon runner from Paris is using the event for preparation, and a young French record-holder is competing in the 5 km.
