RUNCAMP, more than a race. A collective adventure.
RUNCAMP is a next-generation running event that combines sport and team spirit. The concept is simple:
- 24 hours of continuous relay running
- A loop of approximately 6 km set in the heart of nature
- One runner on the course at a time per team
- A collective performance measured by total distance covered
- Rankings based on team size
- A fully immersive day-and-night experience
Here, there are no individual times.
Everything is about the team: managing relays, recovery, mutual support, and collective energy.
RUNCAMP is designed for both regular runners and recreational athletes looking for an accessible yet intense challenge.
RUNCAMP is also an adventure that goes beyond sport - a full weekend with your teammates in a festival-like atmosphere. On the program: music, entertainment, games, food, camping…

- What is RUNCAMP?
RUNCAMP is a team-based relay running event held over a 24-hour period.
- When and where does the event take place?
RUNCAMP will take place on June 20–21, 2026, at the Domaine National de Saint-Cloud.
- What is the race format?
RUNCAMP brings together teams of 2 to 8 runners on a loop of approximately 6 km, combining paved roads and trails, over a continuous 24-hour period.
The relay format means that only one team member is on the loop at a time. At the end of each lap, the runner may either start another lap or hand over the relay to a teammate, who will then begin the loop.
- Who is RUNCAMP for?
RUNCAMP is open to any runner capable of running at least 6 km. The relay format allows you to rely heavily on your teammates.
- Is there an age limit?
Yes. Only participants aged 18 or over may take part, i.e. runners born before June 21, 2008.
- What kind of atmosphere can I expect?
RUNCAMP is first and foremost a sporting event where team cohesion is essential. You’ll also benefit from the support of other participants and the entire organization — RUNCAMP is a collective adventure at every level.
In addition, many activities and entertainment options will be offered to help you relax and have fun between relays. You’ll be able to dance, play, and celebrate freely.
👉 Tip: feel free to bring a deck of cards, a Mölkky set, or pétanque balls!
- How do I register for RUNCAMP?
Registration is carried out exclusively on the Time To platform.
RUNCAMP is a 100% team-based event, with no individual ranking.
The first team member to register chooses:
- the team format (2 to 8 relay runners),
- the team name,
- and completes the payment.
This person is then designated as team captain.
From that point on, the captain is responsible for the team composition and invites teammates to join via their Time To dashboard or the registration confirmation email.
Each teammate can then join the existing team and complete their registration.
In the event of a teammate’s withdrawal, another runner may be invited to complete the team.
- What are the registration fees and deadlines?
Pricing and registration phases will be announced when registration opens.
- Can I change a relay runner after registering?
Yes. In the event of a withdrawal, a relay runner may be replaced via Time To until May 20, 2026, exactly one month before RUNCAMP.
- Can I transfer my registration to someone else?
If you can no longer take part, you may withdraw from your team, and another relay runner can then take your place.
In the event of a teammate’s withdrawal, the captain may invite another runner via the Time To dashboard or by forwarding the confirmation email.
- Are there categories?
Yes. Categories and rankings are determined by the number of relay runners per team:
- 2 Runners
- 3 Runners
- 4 Runners
- 6 Runners
- 8 Runners
RUNCAMP is a team event for 2 to 8 runners. You may therefore:
- register in the 6 Runners category even if your team has only 5 runners,
- register in the 8 Runners category even if your team has only 7 runners.
Your team will be allowed to start and will remain classified in the chosen category.
