The Great Race of Greater Paris is a race that aims to enhance the value of Greater Paris. The first edition was proposed in 2017 in support of the Paris bid for the 2024 Olympic Games. This edition is again committed, supportive and eco-responsible.
The race becomes in 2022 La Grande Course du Grand Paris Express.
The 10 km race will start from the Place de la République in Paris and will arrive at the Stade de France. The course will pass through the Canal Saint-Martin, La Villette and the area around the Millénaire. From the Porte de la Villette to the Stade de France, the runners will go along the Saint-Denis canal and will be able to see the frescos of the Street Art Avenue.
At the Stade de France, animations are proposed, including a 1 km race for children on the track of the mythical stadium.
The half-marathon, goes from the Bois de Vincennes to the Stade de France through Paris to join the 10 km route to the Stade de France.
New for 2025: the Matmut 5 km #NésPourBouger is a free-paced race open to all, and open to solidarity. Registration costs 8 euros, with all proceeds going to the Premiers de Cordée association, which provides disabled children with the means to take part in sporting activities.
