4e RE: 2019 Foreign Legion Half Marathon

In early October 2019, the 4th Foreign Regiment (4e RE), the training center of the French Foreign Legion, organized a traditional half marathon in Castelnaudary, its garrison town in southern France.

The 42nd Foreign Legion Half Marathon (21 km) occurred on October 5. Some 1,000 participants from Foreign Legion regiments stationed in mainland France took part, accompanied by a number of local inhabitants. At the finish, two first places were taken by athletes from the 1er RE, followed by a Polish legionnaire from the 2e REP. The half marathon has been organized by the 4th Foreign Regiment since 1977.
