A Solidarity Event in Dijon That Gives You Energy
On Sunday, April 27, 2025, get ready to lace up your sneakers and flash your brightest smile: the 4th edition of "Let's Move for Alzheimer" is coming to Lac Kir! Organized by France Alzheimer 21, this race has a double goal: to promote physical activity and raise awareness about Alzheimer's disease. Because yes, running is great, but running for a good cause is even better.
And don't worry, everyone can join in: athletes, families, friends, young and old, and even those who are a bit reluctant to exercise. This day is all about inclusion, sharing, and having a good time.
A 3.7 km or 10 km race: everyone has their own challenge!
This year, several routes are offered so everyone can go all out (or just stroll at a relaxed pace, no judgment here).
- 3.7 km in chill mode, starting at 2:30 PM – €5 (registration only on site)
- 5 km competitive race, starting at 10 AM – €12 (registration only online)
- 10 km competitive race, starting at 10 AM – €18 (registration only online)
- Free activities and treasure hunts from 2 PM to 5 PM
And for the motivated teams, special challenges are planned: trophies for the best joëlette, the largest team, and the best combined times.
Much more than just a race: an animation village at Lake Kir
The event is not just about the races! A village of activities will be set up near the sluice of Lake Kir, featuring:
- Information stands to better understand Alzheimer’s and discover the actions carried out by the France Alzheimer 21 association.
- Adaptive sports workshops, like special table tennis, as well as demonstrations of physical activities suited for all ages and abilities.
- Musical performances, because music is also great for memory! Get ready for concerts, shows, and even group dance sessions.
- Food stands, offering delicious and healthy options to refuel after the effort.
