This is an easy and pleasant 5 km loop in western Limoges incorporating paths in Parc de l’Aurence II and a running track in the Palais des Sports de Beaublanc sports complex. Start off Rue Jean le Bail, just across the Campus La Borie of the Université de Limoges. Run for 1.5 km on paths through Parc de l’Aurence II. Combination of open fields and woods. The next section is a bit less pleasant, up a hill and along the busy Rue du Maréchal Foch for 0.7 km to the Sports Complex. Enjoy a few laps around the area’s nice running track and sports fields. For the return, retrace your steps or make it a loop by taking the Bd. de la Borie — a wide, tree-shaded avenue with good sidewalks.
