Another race falls on your calendar 📅: The Harmonie Mutuelle Urban Trail of Amiens! Yes, the city is organizing a new edition of its trail untimed! ⏱️ The event is simple and consists of a distance of 10 km to be done either running 🐇 or walking 🐢. You have plenty of choices!
Oh Amiens! Capital of Picardy, how can one not fall under the charm of the North, when it houses such cities! 🤩 A region that delights in organizing, once again this year, a famous running event in the region: the Urban Trail of Amiens! For the occasion, they have decided to create a race that brings everyone together: seasoned runners, amateurs, walkers! Please note ⚠️, it's important to remember that the winter temperatures remain icy ❄️ (maybe that's to better preserve the beauty of the place, who knows? 🥰). So don't forget your essential gear: turtleneck / jacket / hat / gloves! 🧤 You need to stay in shape for the race, but also to visit the city afterward! Just because the atmosphere is going to be hot doesn't mean you should start taking off clothes! 😜
The course, for its part, will remain secret until further notice 🤫, although you will find some clues in our race descriptions 👀. Knowing the success of Amiens' setting, you’re not likely to be disappointed. Speaking of which, do you know what there is to discover there? "The Little Venice of the North" 🛶 has nothing to envy other French cities 😌. It outshines everyone else with its must-see heritage, highly praised by UNESCO 🌎: the "City of Art and History" label has been rewarding Amiens since 1992 for highlighting its heritage 🏅. Featured: the magnificent Notre-Dame Cathedral ⛪, its sculpted decor, its grand stained glass windows... In short, a perfect representation of Gothic art! With its 112 m height, it is the largest medieval cathedral in the world! 😲 Its volume is twice as large as Notre-Dame de Paris. We can already sense the Parisians' jealousy after reading this text! 😬 But come! It's time to come see the northern wonders 🤝.
Moreover, it's not the only gem in the city! 💎 Its neighborhoods are also highly reputed 🏘️, notably because they are divided by numerous canals 🌊. The rustic charm of Amiens knows how to win the hearts of its visitors ❤️. The Saint-Leu district is also one of the most famous places. Born in the Middle Ages, it is now "the place to be" to have a drink 🍹 on the terrace and enjoy the atypical atmosphere ✨. Take the opportunity to check out Place du Don, where the "gable houses", the oldest in the city, are built 🌆.
Ultimately, it's kind of the ideal place to sign up for a new challenge! That's why we feel you'll be at the Harmonie Mutuelle Urban Trail of Amiens! 😍
"Take me to the end of my dreams, take me to the wonderland" 🎶
