Wine Tasting

A healthy life is a balanced life! ⚖️ We know you care about your preparation, you watch your diet, and you strive to maintain an impeccable lifestyle 🍎. But between us, if you're interested in this theme, it's because you like it 🙃. And you're right: running while tasting the wines of a region is a unique way to explore it 🔎. Of course, the atmosphere is relaxed, sometimes even wacky, but the organization remains perfectly serious 🤓.

It's impossible to talk about this type of event without mentioning the famous Marathon du Médoc 🍇. Since 1984, it has attracted thousands of costumed participants each year to run among the wine estates 🏰, while tasting the great wines of the region 📍. It's a true celebration of wine, sport, and festivity 🥳. Another iconic example is the Marathon des vins de la Côte Châlonnaise, offering an immersion into the heart of the Burgundy wine region, with tastings of Givry, Mercurey, Rully, Montagny, or even Crémant de Bourgogne 🥂. And if you prefer younger wines, the Marathon International du Beaujolais will welcome you in a festive and generous atmosphere 😋. On the trail side, Vinotrail offers distances ranging from 12 to 30 km, with tastings of local wines from the Hérault 😍. This phenomenon goes far beyond our borders 🇫🇷. Internationally, events like the Genusslauf 🇩🇪 or the Valais marathon 🇨🇭 are attracting more and more wine and running enthusiasts 🏃.

If you want to delve deeper into your research, know that the majority of these races are part of the Challenge de la Convivialité 👯‍♀️. In other words, they belong to a selection of 21 races, giving you a good excuse to break your diet 🤪.

So yes, we often say "I'll stop tomorrow" or "this is my last glass," but in the meantime, these races allow you to combine your love for effort with your epicurean side 🍹. You discover local grape varieties, travel through renowned domains, and share unforgettable moments with your loved ones 👌. Even trying hard, you can't really find a downside to this category of races 🧐. And then, if you really want to be serious, you can always sign up for the exclusive event 👆. It's not every day you wander through vineyards and domains with a worldwide reputation 🌍.
