Held annually since 1975 and celebrating its 49th edition in 2025, Courses de l’Indien covers three thoughtfully designed distances—5 km, 10 km, and half marathon—suited to both casual runners and seasoned athletes. The 10 km and half marathon carry the Bronze label from the French Athletics Federation, making them eligible for national championship qualifications. The event is rooted in community spirit, with well-organized logistics including numbered bib pick-up at nearby gyms, on-site aid, and finish-line refreshments. Runners enjoy charming autumn scenery amid ponds and parks in Orléans-La Source, with the half marathon consisting of two loops around the area.
