No, all registrations must be made online at the following address: in.njuko.com/lavenivici-2025

Registration files sent by email or mail will not be taken into account.

Absolutely not. La Veni Vici is open to anyone who is normally constituted and preferably in good health, regardless of their level of practice in running. Practitioners of other sports disciplines, licensed or not, are welcome, as well as hikers.

Medical Certificate: New Participation Conditions since April 1, 2024

In accordance with Law No. 2022-296 of March 2, 2022, aimed at democratizing sports in France, and the guidelines of the French Athletics Federation (FFA), the medical certificate is no longer mandatory when registering for running competitions for non-license holders. It is replaced by a digital process, called the “Health Prevention Course” (pps.athle.fr), a four-step tool aimed at raising awareness of the risks, precautions, and recommendations related to the health of runners, which takes no more than 3 minutes and 30 seconds.

At the end of this Health Prevention Course, a certificate will be available for download, with a unique registration number that you will need to enter in your online registration form.

ATTENTION: The Health Prevention Course certificate has a validity of 3 months. Participants are invited via email to complete the Health Prevention Course starting from August 9, 2025, and to provide the information in their registration profile.

For FFA license holders:
– As long as they hold a valid Competition, Running, or Corporate license on the day of the event (2025-2026 season), they only need to enter their license number in their online profile to complete their registration.
– Individuals holding other FFA licenses (Leisure Health, Coaching, Discovery, Pass I love running) will be required to provide the Health Prevention Course certificate in their online registration process.

Participants in the 27 km Nordic walking (timed) can simply provide a Health Prevention Course certificate instead of their sports license or a medical certificate, dated within 3 months of the event.

Participants in the 13 km hike, where participation is not timed and there is no ranking, do not need to provide any supporting documents, whether they are adults or minors.

Allowed for the 82 km / 48 km / 27 km / 16 km run, without the need for PPS:

• Competition, Running, and Corporate licenses issued by the FFA, valid at the date of the event. All other licenses issued by the FFA (Health, Coaching, and Discovery) and licenses previously issued by other sports federations approved by the FFA now require the provision of a PPS certificate dated within 3 months before the event date.

Since April 1, 2024, the medical certificate is no longer mandatory and is replaced by the Health Prevention Course (PPS), a tool provided by the French Athletics Federation aimed at raising awareness of risks, precautions, and recommendations related to the health of runners.

At the end of this course, which will be available on your online registration profile for the Veni Vici event within 3 months prior to the event, you will be able to download a certificate serving as a ‘Health Passport.’ In other words, there is no longer a need to visit a doctor, neither for French participants nor for foreigners!

Since the PPS is valid for 3 months, participants will receive an email invitation to complete the Health Prevention Course starting from August 9, 2025. Do not fill in the PPS field on your online registration profile before this date, as your certificate number will not be validated and you will need to redo it.

La Veni Vici also offers a 13 km hiking format on a marked non-timed course that will allow you to discover the Pont du Gard Site’s magical surroundings. Hiking sticks are allowed, and registration is not conditioned by a level of practice. The hike is open to all healthy individuals, starting at the age of 7 for those who want to participate as a family. The only condition is to be born before 31.12.2018. No medical certificate is required for the hike, as it does not result in a ranking.

NO. No registration can be made on site, even if other participants cancel. If there are any spots left (highly unlikely, as Veni Vici sells out every year), online registrations will remain open until Friday, November 7, 2025, at 8:00 PM. Due to the high demand for Veni Vici (with 8,500 participants in 2024), we strongly encourage you to register as early as possible, otherwise, you may be disappointed!

Just ask… here’s the link. 

In the event that VENI VICI cannot take place for any reason beyond our control – such as a major weather event or a public health crisis resulting in the cancellation of public events – no bib will be refunded.

Depending on when the event cancellation is announced, a partial refund or rescheduling of the registration may potentially be offered by the organization, without obligation on their part.

As of now, no, a valid health pass is no longer required to participate in outdoor sports events in France, as all health restrictions have been lifted.
However, in the event that health measures are reintroduced, the organizers of la Veni Vici would be required to apply them during the event weekend. All registered individuals will be required to accept and comply with these measures.

Registration is only confirmed after payment by credit card on the online registration site. Once this is validated, participants receive two emails: one confirming payment, the other confirming registration for la Veni Vici, containing the link to your online registration (to be kept safely).

If you do not immediately receive a registration confirmation email, we invite you to check if the message has not landed in the spam folder of your email inbox.

You can also access the list of 2025 participants starting 10 days before the event here.

• If your file is marked “COMPLETE” (in GREEN) : congratulations, you have nothing left to do!
• If your file is marked “INCOMPLETE” (in ORANGE) : Your file is not complete, in most cases because your PPS (Health Prevention Pathway) certificate has not yet been provided. Don’t worry if we are more than three months away from the event: from August 9, 2025, you will be able to upload your PPS certificate in your online registration area. We will send you an email on that date inviting you to provide your health certificate, which replaces the medical certificate requirement, for both French and foreign nationals.

While some may suffer during the Veni Vici due to lack of training, a too-fast start, or just an off day… keep a close watch on your surroundings and your footing. You will be following one of the most remarkable structures in the world, inherited from ancient builders: the Nîmes aqueduct, built 2,000 years ago. Unique and magical. We could have added more elevation gain, more technicality, more… STOP. We settled for tracing what we thought was the most BEAUTIFUL in the area around the Roman aqueduct, with a maximum of variety on the proposed routes.

In terms of route, la Veni Vici is a real cure for boredom: it turns, it goes up (a little, but never for long), it goes down (a little, sometimes often), it’s sometimes rolling (not too much though), it’s technical just enough, with very little asphalt, in a privileged environment.

Starting from Nîmes the Roman city or the Pont du Gard (depending on the chosen format), you will travel back in time through the fragrant garrigue, pass through preserved charming villages of the Gard region, and marvel at Roman engineering, until the grand finale: arriving in the heart of medieval Uzès. When it comes to eye and leg pleasure, you’ll be royally served!

Despite its rolling profile (2200 M+, a trifle, right?), la Veni Vici is sneaky. Watch out for the speeding in the first few kilometers out of Nîmes. A rollercoaster of slopes awaits you in the first kilometers, with a unique passage near the orientation table where you’ll get a rare view of the Duchy of Uzès. While the route will be relatively “calm” up to the Pont du Gard, with at least 95% of the path on trails, make sure to keep some energy in reserve! Once you cross the Gardon River, get ready for a rollercoaster ride over several kilometers. The stretches of asphalt will be limited to passing through villages and the finish line in Nîmes. For the rest: PAMPA!!! And that wonderful scent of thyme in the heart of the garrigue… You’ll have to savor it and give it your all on the trail of the ancient builders, young centurion!

NO, la Veni Vici is absolutely not reserved for experienced competitors: even novice runners have their place, without any time limits on the 16 km and 27 km courses, to fully enjoy the routes. The courses are fully marked and secured, without any overly technical sections. And if running really scares you, you can always opt for the 27 km nordic walking or the 13 km hiking format (which replaces the old “gourmet walk”). It is precisely this variety of options that makes la Veni Vici so popular.

The 16 km run (loop around the Pont du Gard site) in particular is accessible even to people who have never worn a bib in their life (most people end up hooked). This will give you some muscle soreness on J+2, but that’s what motivates you, right? 😉

There will only be for runners of the 82 KM, 48 KM, 27 KM (running and Nordic walking), and 16 KM. Earning the title of “finisher” of the VENI VICI is no easy feat! But don’t worry, we’ve set up very flexible (or rather, wide) cut-off times to bring as many participants as possible back home.We hope you’ll be able to progress throughout the day without the fear of the cutoff time, which can sometimes spoil the enjoyment.

> For the 82 km race: Several time barriers will be set based on an average speed of 5.4 km/h (detailed information to come).

> For the 48 km race: Several time barriers will be set based on an average speed of 5.2 km/h (detailed information to come).

> For the 27 km (RUN): Two time barriers (eliminatory) will be set based on an average speed of 5.4 km/h (detailed information to come).

> For the 27 km Nordic Walk: Two time barriers (eliminatory) will be set based on an average speed of 4 km/h (detailed information to come).

> For the 16 km (RUN): A time barrier (eliminatory) will be set based on an average speed of 4,3 km/h (detailed information to come).

> For the 13 km HIKE: Go at your own pace, enjoy the scenery, and keep your eyes wide open to make the most of the amazing landscapes and Roman heritage of the Gard region.

Well, we’ll forgive your geographical approximations if you’re from far away. But we’re still talking about a major tourist site in France, listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site! For 2000 years, the Pont du Gard has been located halfway between the beautiful Roman city of Nîmes (27 km away) and Avignon (21 km away).

For more information, take a look over there, it’s perfectly explained. If you choose to use a car, consider carpooling by checking out our Facebook space or BlablaCar.

It’s easy to pick up your race bib: it takes place in the reception buildings of the Pont du Gard Site on the right bank (Remoulins side). Please note that both parking areas at the Pont du Gard (right bank and left bank towards Vers-Pont-du-Gard) will be exceptionally free all day on Friday, November 7, 2025.

The bib pick-up will take place in two stages on the Pont du Gard Site (right bank reception):

• Friday, November 7th, 2025, from 9:00 a.m. to 9:00 pm.
• Saturday, November 8th, 2025, from 6:30 a.m. up to 30 minutes before the start of your race or hike.

Piece of advice: prioritize picking up your bib on Friday (the day before the race), considering the expected high turnout. Note that you can send someone in your place, who will just need to present your bib pick-up card that will be sent to you by email a few days before the event.

FOR INDIVIDUAL PICK-UP:

> You must present your bib pick-up card, which will be sent to you by email a few days before the event, either printed out or on your smartphone (check your spam folder if you haven’t received it).

Note: Your bib will not be issued if your file is incomplete (Providing the PPS or a valid sports license is mandatory for runners).

FOR MULTIPLE PICK-UP:

> Present the bib pick-up card for each participant (either printed or on a smartphone), which will be sent to you by email a few days before the event.

The staggered start times by waves are intended to maximize course flow.

A tip for competitors: don’t wait until the last minute to position yourself at the starting line and prioritize the 1st wave!

YES-YES-YES! It’s really kind of you to offer, as we have many needs for volunteers: on the race courses, for bib collection, refreshments, and the start-finish areas. We have many interesting tasks to offer you to experience the event from the inside and contribute to its success.

To register as a volunteer, the registration link will be available by the end of May 😉
