About the Event

Backyard of Hope invites runners to immerse themselves in the heart of Lourmarin, a village that exudes the essence of Provence. The race is designed around 8 loops, each one completed at a steady pace over an hour, allowing participants time to rest, socialize, and refuel between laps.
The event fosters a sense of community and camaraderie as runners share their experiences with fellow competitors and locals alike. Unlike races that require early starts or late finishes, Backyard of Hope is all about maintaining a consistent rhythm throughout the day. Each loop not only challenges your physical endurance but also contributes to a noble cause—every lap doubles in significance for both you and those who benefit from the charity.
Once the final lap is completed, there's an opportunity to explore Lourmarin further. Stroll through its charming lanes or visit the Château de Lourmarin, steeped in history and surrounded by stunning landscapes. Nearby Cucuron offers a serene break beside its famous pond, while Bonnieux provides breathtaking views that inspire reflection.
For those seeking relaxation, ending your day with an apéritif on one of Lourmarin's village square terraces is the quintessential Provençal experience. This race promises to leave you with lasting memories and a sense of fulfillment both physically and emotionally, all while staying within the picturesque Luberon region.
The event offers runners not just a physical challenge but an immersive cultural journey through one of France’s most enchanting regions.
