"Feel the magic in the air, à-Laye, à-Laye, à-Laye" 🙌
In Saint-Germain-en-Laye, in Île-de-France, the Purple Run has a bunch of beautiful surprises you won’t forget anytime soon 🎁. This charity race, set at the gates of Paris in the Yvelines, is the perfect finale to your season during the last sunny days 🌅. With courses of 5 km, 10 km, or even a walk, you’ll enjoy the last rays of sun of early autumn 🍂.
In October, get ready to see the forest of Domaine National du Château de Saint-Germain-en-Laye take on autumn colors 🍁. Along the course you’ll travel between historic heritage and natural immersion inside the royal forest. You’ll feel a bit like in the series "Versailles", with golden outfits replaced by a bib 🎽. This castle welcomed for years the greatest kings of France 👑, so show that you’re brave enough to become the local KOM king 😎. Regarding the discipline: choose between running and active walking. If you’re looking for a simple activity to energize your weekend, the 5 km route will be more than enough. No need to finish with sore legs to have a great day 😮💨. For the high performers, the distance to prioritize will be the 10 km. The records to beat are numerous and round numbers are perfect targets: 1h, 50 minutes, 40 minutes or even 30 minutes for the group’s rockets, what limit will you set? 🤯 And for a little family outing: with 5 km of nature walk are also on the menu 🗺️.
But more than the effort, the real value of this event is its purpose 🤗. Here you run for something bigger than a medal or your thighs. You give strength to those fighting illness. The race is a partner of the association Tout le Monde Contre le Cancer and donates 100% of its profits: no more, no less 💸. All of this is felt in the atmosphere: conviviality, kindness and mutual aid are the watchwords of this day 🗣️. We don’t just come for our own time, we come so that the solidarity counter explodes 📈. In October, come grab a happiness juice, during the Pulpe Purple Run of Saint-Germain-en-Laye 🧃.
Once back in front of the Château de Saint-Germain-en-Laye, don’t forget to explore the National Archaeology Museum it hosts and the surroundings 🦴. Nearby, you can also wander the old historic alleys of Saint-Germain-en-Laye
So lace up your best purple shoes (if they’re purple, even better 🟣) and join us in the Yvelines in October! 🚗
