Tour My Run!Tour My Run!Toulouse is a city you run along the Garonne and the Canal du Midi, beneath the pink brick. The river quays and dikes unroll flat, sunlit kilometres, the UNESCO-listed Canal du Midi threads its towpath through the city, and the Prairie des Filtres greens the left bank facing the centre. On TourMyRun, a local runner takes you along their routes: the Garonne banks at dawn, the Canal du Midi towpath, the Prairie des Filtres, the Île du Ramier loop. Not a standard circuit: one hour with a Toulousain who knows the good, flat, rolling paths and the right tempo in the pink city.

To get taken running in Toulouse, 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 is a Toulousain who loves to run and knows the Garonne, the Canal du Midi and the parks of the pink city. Since Toulouse is very flat, they play with distance and scenery — the banks, the canal, Île du Ramier. Many of our guides here are running-club members and sports students who know every training loop.
Looking for someone to run with in Toulouse? 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 Toulouse 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.
