Imagine stepping into the world of Top Gun with Ray-Ban sunglasses perched atop your nose, feeling that brotherly camaraderie on the tarmac. Now, you can experience this dream as an athlete at AéroRun Lyon, a 10 km road race set to take place in November amidst the sprawling grounds of Lyon-Bron Airport. The course offers runners a flat and straightforward route with minimal turns and no elevation gain, making it ideal for setting personal bests. Whether sprinting alongside the runway or taking part in the more leisurely 2.5 km walk, you're contributing to a noble cause—100% of your registration fee goes directly to Aviation Sans Frontières’ Hospital Plane project in Madagascar. The airport itself is an aviation enthusiast’s paradise, covering over 2,000 hectares and dedicated solely to business aviation flights, ranking third among such airports in France. It's also the site where history was made with the first fully electric flight. This unique setting promises a memorable experience for runners and walkers alike. After crossing the finish line, you can indulge in Lyon’s rich culinary scene, often referred to as the world capital of gastronomy. Explore Vieux Lyon’s winding streets or enjoy a praline brioche at one of the city's traditional "bouchons." The Saône riverbanks offer serene spots for post-race relaxation and leg-stretching. So lace up your running shoes, put on your aviator sunglasses, and join AéroRun Lyon to experience an unforgettable blend of aviation excitement and French culinary delights.

About Lyon
Learn more about the host city, Lyon.
Lyon is the capital of the French administrative region of Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes. A city of half a million, Lyon alone is the country's third-largest city, but its metropolitan area is only second in population to Paris. Lyon is mostly known as the gastronomic epicentre of France, with one of the highest concentrations of restaurants per capita in the country. Lyon was a Roman provincial capital and thus has extensive Roman ruins. Architecture in old Lyon ranges from 12th century to modern, and is primarily influenced by its position in the Renaissance as a centre of silk production.
