As a seasoned runner and event enthusiast, I can confirm the Running Show (formerly the Running Expo) lives up to its reputation as France's premier gathering for runners of every level, from beginners to pros. This unmissable event connects you with top running experts to kickstart or elevate your training.
Dive into coaching sessions led by acclaimed marathoner Carmen Oliveras, offering practical advice to begin running or refine your technique.
Perfect your running style with fashion shows from leading brands like Nike, Adidas, New Balance, and Asics, plus complimentary style consultations from Run Chic. Top it off with a runner-focused manicure at the Nail Truck for that flawless finish.
After debating the ideal running shoes or customizing your training plan with Carmen, recharge at Herbalist's complimentary tea bar sampling their full range of revitalizing teas. Follow up with an aromatherapy workshop and soothing massage—pure bliss.
Spot introductory osteopathy sessions and free podiatry checks to analyze your gait, support, and potential need for orthotics, especially if shoes are causing issues.
The Running Show features guided workouts throughout. On Friday, join samba-cardio at 12:30 p.m. for rhythmic fun, ChrisRuelFit at 6 p.m. blending cardio and strength, or Yoga in the City at 7 p.m. in a vibrant, focused vibe.
Saturday brings track sessions at 4:30 p.m. on the Susan Lenglen Stadium and a 6 p.m. stretching class.
All sessions are free; pre-register via the Zippyguide site.
Post-event, refuel at the Pasta Party. Catch me there, plate in hand.
Join us April 9-11 at Porte de Versailles – Parc des Expositions.
