The volunteer team

Organised within a non-profit framework (Law of 1901), the event relies on a dedicated core of volunteers who work year-round to prepare each edition. The event could not exist without their commitment, which contributes both to the promotion of sport and to the visibility of the Normandy region.

On race day, more than 1,600 volunteers actively contribute to the success of the event. Their tasks are numerous and all essential to ensure the participants’ safety and a positive experience: assisting runners, logistics, starts and finishes, entertainment, refreshments stations, and more.

Volunteer commitment is driven by strong values: friendliness, team spirit, respect and a sense of sharing, making each edition a truly shared experience, both on a human and sporting level.
