Tour My Run!Tour My Run!Paris isn't only meant to be admired from a tour bus: it's meant to be run. At first light, when the Seine embankments are still empty and the sun grazes the bridges, the city reveals a different side of itself. On TourMyRun, a local runner takes you along their routes: the riverside between Pont Alexandre-III and Notre-Dame, the leafy paths of the Bois de Boulogne, the heights of Buttes-Chaumont, the quiet Canal Saint-Martin, or the wide-open Champ-de-Mars facing the Eiffel Tower. Not a sightseeing coach, not a random jog around your hotel: one hour of running with someone who lives here, at your pace, who knows the right turns, the hidden passages and the right tempo.
Come, I'll take you running
To get taken running in Paris, book a run on TourMyRun: a local runner welcomes you and their group at a meeting point, and you set off along their route, at your own pace, for the length of a run — often around an hour. You never run alone, and there's nothing for you to organise.

Get the free guideYour guide isn't a service provider — they're a Parisian who loves to run and wants to show you their city. They adjust the pace and distance to your level, pick the route to suit the time of day, and share the Paris you won't find in guidebooks. Many of our Paris guides are running-club members and sports students who know their training loops by heart. You leave with a real memory — and often a GPX track to run again on your own.
Looking for someone to run with in Paris? A local is ready to go. Rather than running alone in a city you don't know, you join a resident who already runs this ground: they open up their route, match the pace to yours, and show you the city on the move.
Not here for the performance? Many guides offer an easy-paced discovery run — a gentle jog, almost at walking pace, to see the city without racing through it. You stop at the viewpoints and take the time to look: it's a way to discover Paris on the move with a local, at a pace that lets you take everything in.
Yes. On TourMyRun, a run is led by a local who welcomes a small group of runners: you join others — visitors or locals — for a shared group run, without ever having to run alone. It's the group of a TourMyRun run, led by a resident — not an outside club or crew.
Public, well-known routes you can run on your own — a solid plan B to get moving right away. But the best of TourMyRun is still discovering them with a local who takes you, at your pace.
