The Coulonnoise Race is set to captivate runners of all ages and skill levels with its diverse range of events, taking place on October 31st and November 1st, 2026. The race begins at Arthur Bart Street and concludes in the René Demarthe Hall, which also serves as the bustling event village. The adult races include a competitive semi-marathon, challenging participants to cover 21 kilometers through measured and timed routes with official rankings. For those looking for shorter distances, there are 5km and 10km courses that cater to runners from Minimes (younger teens) up to Vétérans (senior athletes). Each of these events awards finishers with a medal. On the evening of October 31st, families can enjoy a special treat for children in the form of non-timed races. The Baby race offers a fun 200-meter dash for infants born after 2020, while slightly older kids aged between 4 and 6 (born from 2017 to 2019) run a 400-meter course known as Éveils. For children around the age of nine or ten (born in 2015-2016), there is a 1,200-meter Poussin race and for those aged eleven or twelve (born in 2013-2014) a more challenging 1,600-meter Benjamin course. All these events are free but limited to available bib numbers. The event also features leisurely options like the night-time 5km walk on October 31st at 7 PM, designed for those who prefer a casual stroll under starlight rather than racing against time. Participants in this non-timed and unranked category must ensure they wear reflective vests and headlamps to stay safe during their evening adventure. On November 1st, the day kicks off early with the semi-marathon at 8:30 AM, offering a mix of competition and camaraderie among runners. Later in the morning, there’s an unranked but scenic 10km walk for all ages starting at 8:45 AM. The Coulonnoise Race promises to be more than just competitive racing; it's about community spirit, family fun, and celebrating athletic achievements across different age groups and abilities. Whether you're a seasoned athlete or a casual walker enjoying the outdoors with friends and family, there’s an event tailored for everyone at this vibrant race weekend in 2026. Registration fees vary depending on when participants sign up; early bird discounts are available until August 31st before prices increase slightly thereafter to accommodate late registrants.
