The lights are finally dimming, the audience grows quieter, and the runners are ready to take the stage! 🎭 Determined to give their best performance 💪, the troupe of runners still feels a bit anxious about starting the [DEL: race :DEL] show! 🎪 This is, after all, the 14th edition of the Spinassienne, and many of them know every [DEL: elevation :DEL] line by heart... Well, as you might have gleaned, we’re talking about a running race, not a theater play! And specifically, it's the half marathon of the Spinassienne that we want to tell you about! 🏃♂️
The start and finish are not far, at Vol d’Oise-au 🕊️.
Viens M'Attraper launched in Paris in August 2018 when a tight circle of friends decided they wanted to run fast on their own terms, free from outdated traditions. Built on real training and real friendship, the crew has grown to around 50 members who take their times seriously but their friendships even more. Founded with a philosophy of competing hard and having fun in equal measure, Viens M'Attraper proves you don't have to choose between performance and belonging to a crew you actually love. Twice weekly on the track, Tuesday and Thursday, the crew shows up for speed sessions that push hard and hurt just right. The atmosphere is honest, driven, and genuinely warm.
Bromance Athletic Club started in 2017 when two lifelong friends decided to channel their bond into something bigger: running through Paris. What began as a simple marathon training plan has grown into a crew of about twenty runners who treat their Wednesday, Friday, and Sunday routes like pilgrimage. They've claimed three iconic Parisian spots as their own, Montmartre at Sunday dawn, Buttes Chaumont on Friday mornings, and the Canal de l'Ourcq midweek. Founded on the belief that running is a pretext for staying close and pushing further, Bromance Athletic Club sees every crew as a love story between friends and the road. Trail-obsessed and genuinely rooted in the joy of running together, they've built something tight-knit through years of early mornings and shared miles.
Seven high school friends arrived in Paris during the same year and chose to share a flat in the Marais, turning those early mornings into shared runs through the city streets. What started as a daily ritual between friends evolved into MRC Paris, a running crew built on friendship, shared ambition, and the radical belief that running could be a project worth pouring everything into. Founded in 2014, the crew has grown to around 50 runners who gather under the same banner, carrying the same energy as those original evenings in the Marais. Every Wednesday at 8 PM, they meet at La Montgolfière to run together, same time, same place, same spirit.
