Foulées de l'amitié

Whether you are a regular racer or this is your very first time, this day in Béthune is for you! Artois Athletics and the City offer you a sporting adventure for everyone. All you need are sneakers and a little motivation. The atmosphere? Great! Here, we run for fun and sharing. Whether you walk, jog or go full throttle, everyone goes at their own pace.

Here's what awaits you:

• Races in the city center – Béthune reveals its streets and park for a mix of urban and nature courses.

• Refreshments at km 5 of the 10 km race and at the finish of all the events – just to recharge your batteries.

• Rewards at 10:15 a.m. for the 2500m, and at 12:30 p.m. for the 5 and 10 km: cups for the champions and a surprise gift for each registrant (yes, the organizers spoil everyone here!).

Course focus:

Choose your course: 5 km or 10 km! The start is on rue Sadi Carnot, full of energy. You head towards rue A. France, then rue Ponnelle, before arriving at Place de Gaulle, the heart of the city. Then, head to Parc de la Gare d’Eau, with its green spaces and pleasant paths. After a good refueling, you finish on the Grand’Place. And there you go again! Double the pleasure for those who tackle the 10 km with a second loop!

Why you should be there:

• Because €1 of your registration goes directly to Orpheopolis, to help police orphans. So, in addition to running, you're doing a good deed!

• Because it's a race open to everyone, beginners and experienced alike, and it's the perfect opportunity to have fun, no matter your level.

So, shall we meet in Béthune?
