On Sunday, September 13, 2026, the Stade Velodrome d’Albert will host an exciting day of running and walking events with something for everyone. The centerpiece is the Semi-Marathon du Val d'Ancre (Coquelicot), a scenic race that winds through the picturesque landscapes around Albert. Accompanying this event are two trail races: the Airbus Trail, covering 19 kilometers, and the Albert Trail Découverte at a more accessible distance of 5 kilometers. The day also features leisure walks for all ages and abilities, with options ranging from easy strolls to longer treks through scenic routes. The Marche Loisir offers three distances—5km, 11km, and 13.5km—to accommodate participants looking for a less strenuous yet enjoyable experience. Departure times vary by event: the semi-marathon starts at 9am, followed closely by the Airbus Trail beginning at 9:15 am. The Albert Trail Découverte kicks off just after that at 9:20 am, and leisure walks start from 9:30 am for longer distances, with a final walk starting at 10:30 am. Participants can look forward to an engaging atmosphere filled with camaraderie as they navigate the varied terrain. The routes are designed to showcase the natural beauty of Albert’s surroundings while offering challenges that cater to both seasoned runners and casual walkers alike. For those looking for additional motivation, a special challenge is available for businesses or families competing in teams. These groups can register under their entity name during sign-up, with prizes awarded based on the number of finishers from each team. The winners will be recognized as top performers among local organizations like Mairie Albert and family units. All participants receive medals upon completion along with a practical gift bag to commemorate their achievement. Refreshment stations are strategically placed throughout all routes, ensuring that runners and walkers stay hydrated and energized during the event. For more information or to register for any of these events, contact the organizers at 0646175061. Don’t miss out on this vibrant day of athletic celebration in Albert! Join us as we celebrate fitness, community spirit, and the joy of exploring nature through running and walking.
