READY TO RUN

From race morning to after the finish.

Your start time, fuel and bag drop.
Know them ahead and the run feels easier.

The Semi-Marathon des Sources du Lac d'Annecy starts and finishes at the Salle Polyvalente in Doussard every last Sunday of September.

Participation is capped at 1,200 for half marathon and 1,000 for the 10km, so a relatively relaxed race atmosphere can be expected.

Course follows a greenway through Bredannaz and Duingt, loops through the village of Saint-Jorioz, and returns to Doussard;

it's undulating but without major elevation change.

The 10km starts in Saint-Jorioz and follows an almost straight course into Doussard.

Late September mornings in the Haute-Savoie region tend to be cool, so a light outer layer may be needed.

Times are local to Doussard. Check the latest official information before the race.
