Highlights
  • Lyon - I propose different options depending on the level of participants: Option “Discovery” between 9-10 km: The starting point is located on the Place des Jacobins, next to the fountain. After a short presentation on the city and the route to go, we will go to Mercière Street, Place des Celestins, Place Bellecour. Then we will head to the banks of the Saone we will cross to get to Old Lyon. Here we can admire the cathedral of Saint-Jean, the small streets and also the famous “traboules”. After having crossed all the old Lyon from the south to the north, we will arrive again on the Quays of Saone, that we will take by the left bank, until Marshal Koênig’s Bridge. We will return by the opposite side of the river direction Place des Terreaux. After a short break, we will take the banks of the Rhone. We will run along the river lined with pretty barges, until Pont Wilson to arrive again in the Place des Jacobins. Option “Trail” 10-12km: Same course + ascent and descent of the Fourvière and visit of the Gallo-Roman Theater. * Option Series 12-15km: 25min of Ech + Fractional-VMA + recuperation (in the park or on track).
