On 4 January 2026, Prom’Classic opens the French running year with a 10 km race entirely along Nice’s iconic Promenade des Anglais, attracting thousands of runners to the Baie des Anges. Participants can choose between a chronométrée (timed) version, which is an officially measured, championship-qualifying 10 km, and a non-timed version aimed at those who want the atmosphere without racing the clock. The route is dead-simple and designed for speed: wide tarmac, an out-and-back profile, virtually no elevation, and uninterrupted sea views. Open to runners aged 16 and over, it combines big-race production with a festive Riviera vibe, making it a prime target for personal bests or a motivating start to the year.
