Les Coucoureurs

Posted May 3 '25

Les Coucoureurs-AFNO's Running Club

Back in 2021, the Alliance Française embarked on an exciting journey by introducing "Les Coucoureurs," our very own running club. The name "Les Coucoureurs" is a playful combination of "coucou," the French word for "road runner," and "coureur."

Get Ready to Run: Join us, AFNO members, students, and staff, for our exhilarating bimonthly running group! Lace up your running shoes and mark your calendar for the second and fourth Saturday mornings of each month.

All Fitness Levels Welcome: Whether you're a seasoned runner or just getting started, "Les Coucoureurs" welcomes everyone! You don't need to speak French to participate, but who knows, you might pick up a few French phrases along the way.

Event Details:
🗓️  Date: Saturday mornings biweekly  *holidays exceptions * Next date : in August
⏰ Time: 9:00 am
 📍   Location: AFNO (1519 Jackson Ave)

The Fun Doesn't End at the Finish Line: After the run, stick around to unwind and socialize with fellow runners. Join us for a refreshing drink in the backyard, celebrating the joy of running and the camaraderie of our running community.

Ready, Set, Go! Whether you're running for fitness, fun, or a bit of both, "Les Coucoureurs" is the perfect opportunity to embrace a healthy lifestyle while enjoying the spirit of French culture. So, grab your running gear, and let's hit the road together!

This running club is in partnership with Louisiana Running + Walking Company
