Les 20K de Paris

Sunday October 12th, 2025
Paris, France
Distance: 20k
Offical Race Web Site

The 20 Kilometers de Paris (Paris 20 km) is an annual road running competition over 20 kilometers which takes place on the streets of Paris, France in October. First held in 1979, the race attracts top level international competitors and holds IAAF Bronze Label Road Race status.

The competition was the idea of Michel Jazy, a French runner who was an Olympic medallist and two-time European Champion. The first edition was held through a joint effort by the Council of Paris and ASCAIR (the French Airforce's body for sport). The race has been organized under the auspices of ASCAIR since then.

The course for the competition has a double looped, figure 8 style. The start point of the race is in the Trocadéro near the Eiffel Tower and runners then cross the River Seine over the Pont d'Iéna. It heads in an anti-clockwise loop through Bois de Boulogne before completing a smaller, clockwise loop along the banks of the Seine. The finish point is the Musée du quai Branly. The original race distance was 20.3 km, but this was reduced to 20 km in 1981. As a result of poor race organisation at the starting point, athlete's times from 1981 to 1992 are not accepted for record purposes; unusually quick times were recorded as some runners began the race a whole minute before the official starter's gun had been fired.

The men's and women's course records for the 20 km race are held by Kenyan athletes: Evans Cheruiyot completed the distance in 57:19 minutes in 2005 and Sarah Chepchirchir's time of 1:05:03 hours was set in 2013.

The race organizers abide by their own charter of ethics which – aside from outlining typical races rules and safety issues – includes the aims of increasing inclusion of women in the sport of running and promotion of environmentally friendly attitudes.

Les 20K de Paris

On Sunday the 28th of October, 1979, at 1:00pm, 8,000 runners took off from the starting line of the first «20 Kilomètres de Paris», organized jointly by the Paris City Hall and ASCAIR, the Air Force’s Athletic and Cultural Association.

The race was the idea of French athlete Michel Jazy.

    • Since that time, ASCAIR has continued to organize what has become one of the most popular races in France. More than 22,000 runners took the start of the 30th edition of the race on the 12th of October, 2009.
    • Since 1979, the race has been sponsored by the Air Force, and organized by their Paris-based Athletic Association.
    • Since 1979, the «20 Kilomètres de Paris» has started from the foot of the Eiffel Tower.
    • Since 1979, more than 800 volunteers have given their time and energy every year to provide the best possible services to runners. 800 volunteers whose motivation never fails, and without whom the atmosphere of the course would not be what it is today.
  • Since 1979, the race has been led by incredible athletes. The course record has improved by over 4 minutes, and the race is now run in less than 58 minutes.

Generali Munich Marathon

Sunday October 12th, 2025
Munich, Germany
Distance: Marathon · Half Marathon · Marathon Relay · 10K
Offical Race Web Site

The GENERALI MUNICH MARATHON has held the elite label of the WORLD ATHLETICS since 2020 and the marathon route is officially measured and recognized.

The route runs from the Olympic Park and Schwabing to Leopoldstraße with the Siegestor, via Königsplatz and the Pinakotheken to the English Garden. From there past the Chinese Tower and Art Nouveau villas in Bogenhausen, through the east of Munich, past the Gasteig and over the Isar Bridge to the Deutsches Museum. Then it's off to the new route highlight, the Viktualienmarkt and Marienplatz! Then non-stop via the Bavarian State Opera and our residence to Odeonsplatz. The final sprint goes via the Theatinerkirche via Ludwigstraße back to the Olympic Stadium - to the Grand Final!

The goosebumps begin with the last 100 meters: in the large marathon gate, the runners immerse themselves in a scenario of fog, music, applause and loud cheers. The home straight of the Olympic Stadium are the final meters of the GMM 2022. Got it! That's what they say in Bavaria.

BY THE WAY: The course record of 2:09:46 has not been broken for 20 years. DO YOU ACCEPT THE CHALLENGE?

The Newport Marathon and Half Marathon

Sunday October 12th, 2025
Newport, Rhode Island
Distance: Marathon · Half Marathon · 5K
Offical Race Web Site

Whether you're an advanced runner looking to qualify for the Boston Marathon, or just looking for a scenic jog and walk, The Newport Marathon and Half Marathon promises a good time for participants of all speeds.

The Newport Marathon is proud to partner with local charitable organizations to help raise money and awareness. Gray Matter Marketing will donate upwards of $50,000 to these local organizations and we encourage all runners to join our Crowdrise.com page to create even more impact for these worthy non-profit partners.

The Amica Newport Marathon and Half-Marathon share the first 13.1 miles of a scenic tour through The City by The Sea. The race starts with an uphill jaunt on Memorial Boulevard before heading downhill towards Newport Harbor, turning onto the popular Thames Street. The course then winds along the south shore of Newport Harbor before heading into Fort Adams State Park for a quick tour and turn around. Upon leaving the Park, runners work their way towards Ocean Drive with panoramic views of the Atlantic and New England coastline for the next five miles.

After a gradual uphill climb at the end of Ocean Drive, the course turns onto world-famous Bellevue Avenue and past historic mansions such as Rough Point, Marble House and Rosecliff. The run turns off of Bellevue, onto Ruggles with a quick run past The Breakers and through the heart of Salve Regina's campus where cheering students man a popular aid station. A final turn back down Memorial Boulevard takes both Marathon and Half-Marathon runners to Easton's Beach where the two races split. The Half-Marathon participants are awarded their finisher's medal here and the Marathon runners continue on towards Middletown and Second Beach.

I am a 79 year old female. Shame- no 80 division! Tufts honored top 5 and senior running clubs advocate for honoring older runners! This was my 21st and was looking forward to doing all my races next year at 80! Please consider honoring the 80 year group!

Boston 10K for Women

The Tufts Health Plan 10K for Women has its origins in 1977, when it was known as the Bonne Bell Mini Marathon. It was one of a series of 12 races for women that were held across the country. It is nowBoston 10K for Women

Although only 200 women had been expected to participate that first year, 2,231 women ran and walked the course that began and ended at the Hyatt Regency in Cambridge. The first race included a series of 17 steps, an unusual feature in a foot race.

Lynn Jennings, then a high school senior, ran neck and neck with Patti Lyons (Catalano), and Lynn won the race in a time of 34:31. Lynn went on to win the race six times (1977, 1989, 1990, 1991, 1992, 1993). Her history with the race also includes five second-place finishes...

The majority of the women who run are dedicated to this particular race. They have run for years with friends, daughters, mothers, sisters, and colleagues and are fully supportive of this tradition. Some of the women have gone on to run marathons, having been inspired by this 10K. Others just run the Tufts Health Plan 10K for Women every year. There are at least 18 women who have run the race every year since its inception in 1977.
