The event in a few words

Ahhhh Toulouse, the pink 💕 city, city of art, city of history and city of gastronomy, we could sing its praises for hours on end… But today we're going to talk to you about its sporting side. No, not rugby or swimming, even though we hold Antoine Dupont and Léon Marchand equally dear to our hearts, but our favorite sport: running 🏃.

In France, there are thousands of running races: costume races, seaside races, in the mountains, solo or in a team, you can go running every day of the year if you feel like it 💗. But the Secret Run #3: Night Session is more than just an original concept: it's a brand-new experience 🫡. Here, you set off on a course whose route you will only get a few days beforehand. The location, the distance, the pre-race, the course and the after race: you'll discover it all in due time 🤪. At the time of registration, you will only know the date, the distance range and a difficulty level to complete the event ⚔️. In your case, a range of 5 to 10 kilometers awaits you. Admittedly, that may sound short, but if you're already fried after 5 km, we can assure you that the last 5 will be tough to manage 😂. And as its name suggests, it's the night version that awaits you in September 👀. In Occitanie, the Toulouse night has a good chance of being mild at this time of year, but bring a light layer, so that only the city stays pink. So we advise you to remember your headlamp, it will probably be very necessary (especially to admire the places you run through 🔦).

Want one last argument? The event is limited to 600 participants 🌡️. You are therefore joining a unique community, where you won't feel overwhelmed by the crowds and the information. In September, get ready for the festive atmosphere and friendliness that are unique to the Secret Run Toulouse 🤫. To extend your dream weekend in the biggest city in Occitanie, don't forget to visit the Place du Capitole, the Basilica of Saint-Sernin or the Musée des Augustins, you'll turn pink with happiness 🥹.

And if you feel your mental strength isn't there, treat yourself to a little listening session Pascal Dupraz-style: a good motivational speech Toulouse-style never hurts 🗣️.

4 reasons to join this race

Run on instinct 🐺
No route to study the night before, no elevation to anticipate on Strava: you only discover the course some time before the start. Forget recon runs, everything will play out on race day 😎. A true reset for those used to race strategies 🤫.
The night atmosphere 🌙
Well, we don't know exactly what the organizers have in store for you (or maybe we have an idea but we're not allowed to tell you 🤪), but what is certain is that the name "night session" clearly suggests a night race. You will discover the beautiful Occitan capital from a new angle, and probably more black than pink 🕯️. Are the batteries changed?
600 bibs, no more, no less 🫡
Here, forget the human tides at the start and the endless queues at the aid stations 🍽️. You won't have to elbow your way to stay in the race. The deliberately limited capacity keeps the feel of a secret shared among insiders, a far cry from overcrowded major events 😮‍💨.
Toulouse, quite simply 🤩
The Capitole, the Couvent des Jacobins, the Saint-Sernin district or simply the banks of the Garonne, the beautiful city in southwestern France has no shortage of charming little tourist spots 📸. But beneath its well-known pink-city appearance, the city is full of corners that even some locals have never run through. The Secret Run is precisely betting on that side of the city, far from the beaten tracks of the city center 🕵️‍♀️.
