This year marks the beginning of a new adventure as Brooks becomes a major partner of La Parisienne by nākd., one of the most iconic women’s running events in France.
This partnership was born from a shared belief: celebrating women in running and encouraging more women to get to the start line, regardless of their experience or level. Like Brooks, La Parisienne places inclusion, well-being, and personal achievement at the heart of its mission.
On September 13, 2026, more than 20,000 participants will gather in the heart of Paris to enjoy a unique sporting experience across three accessible formats: a 10K run, a 7K run, and a 7K walk. Together, we celebrate the power of movement, the strength of community, and every woman who chooses to run her own path.
Discover everything Brooks has created to make this edition unforgettable. Explore our exclusive experiences and sign up for the ones you won’t want to miss.
Race weekend starts with a shake-out run!

Lola & Mégane: A Sisters' Challenge Beyond the Clock
This year, we challenged Lola, the iconic Koh-Lanta adventurer and ambassador for La Parisienne by nākd., to take on the 10K alongside her sister, Mégane. A unique challenge, as Mégane, a mother, has never taken part in a race before.
Their journey goes far beyond a simple training plan. It is a story of self-belief, personal growth, and overcoming the barriers that many women face when starting or returning to running. Together, they show that with support, consistency, and a healthy dose of motivation, every challenge becomes more achievable. “I’m so happy to bring my sister along on this adventure and support her as she prepares for her first 10K.
""We’ve started our training, and even though it’s not always easy, we finish every session feeling proud of ourselves. La Parisienne by nākd. is the perfect opportunity to get started without focusing on the clock: to push yourself, step outside your comfort zone, and most importantly, be proud of yourself without comparing yourself to others.” – Lola, via Instagram
The big day is almost here. With only a few days to go before race day, follow the final stages of their preparation and see how they take on this challenge together all the way to the start line.
