Since the very beginning of Distance, we’ve been proud to carry Satisfy, from 2018 to 2026, growing together, sharing the same obsession for performance, design, and running culture.
Thanks to everyone who joined the morning run and got early access, your energy set the tone.
The tee is now available everywhere: our stores in Paris, Copenhagen, Lyon, and online.
For all possessed runners, don’t sleep on this one, limited quantities.
Still working hard. Still pushing boundaries. Still doing things our own way.
After 7 years, standing apart from the rest gets harder, and that’s exactly what we love. Staying authentic and speaking to all runners remains our core focus.
These images from Le Mamelon, one of the oldest cross-country races, organised by our partner near our hometown, say it all. A true, inclusive event, deeply rooted in running tradition with a Distance twist: bold artwork by our friend and our iconic start arch lighting the way toward a brighter future, past the finish line (made also by our friend from ).
None of this would exist without the Distance team in the widest sense, employees, partners, ambassadors, athletes, all giving their best, every day. 💙💙💙.
2026 is on:
New projects, fresh perspectives, and exciting surprises coming very soon.
FOR ALL RUNNERS.
Merci à tous 🙏

Over the past few weeks, our Distance Racing athletes have laced up their On shoes and spikes for another winter season, pushing quietly toward their next layer of work and resilience. From iconic cross-country and corrida races across France and Switzerland to the European Championships in Portugal, they’ve been giving their all.
Their promising results only make us eager for what’s next. Trust us, they’ll be there when it matters.

3 athletes // 3 stories // 3 ambitions
The same 42.195 kilometers.
We followed Alice, Paolo, Alassan, before, during, and after the race, trying to capture what was running through their minds as they took on Berlin.
To take it even further, we invited other athlete lambda to relive the race in their shoes (literally) during two events in Lyon and Paris.
A project celebrating different motivations, honest doubts, and the pure joy of running.
We spent an amazing morning with HOKA and CSBJ Athlétisme to unveil our brand-new, blazing arch during their annual VMA test, a session also open to the public to help everyone get a feel for their pace.
This key workout sets the tone for the whole season, so it was the perfect moment to lace up in the Mach X3, Cielo X1 2.0, or Rocket X 3 and push to the limit.
After the effort, we hit the region’s best club canteen: fries, sandwiches, and an unreal dose of sunshine to chill together on the HOKA deckchairs, surrounded by runners who share the same passion.
Proud to back such an authentic club, driven by passion, community, and the idea of helping every runner get better.
Huge thanks to CSBJ Athlé, its board and coaches, to HOKA for the support, and to all the runners for their energy and enthusiasm.
For All Runners. Always.
AVAILABLE INSTORE AND ONLINE
Three days of pure energy. Le Relais might’ve turned us into full-time sports bar owners.
This project was built with obsession, every detail considered, from the Endorphin Speed 5 design to the full launch experience. Nothing left to chance, just passion and precision.
Huge thanks to the Saucony and Distance teams for all the work they put in, and to every partner who helped bring this to life. Proud to share moments like this with our community.
The fifth Endorphin Speed is a rocket, one of the best shoes out there. Come try (and grab) the boldest colorway yet, now available online and in our stores in Copenhagen, Lyon, and Paris.
From Friday, October 24 to Sunday, October 26, we’re opening our doors at 21 rue des Filles du Calvaire.
A place for runners and non-runners alike. Come for a drink, stay for the stories, the vintage running vibes, and the good people. It’s where sport meets culture, the way we like it at Distance.
And for those who know where to look… Behind a hidden door, a speakeasy awaits where you’ll find the exclusive Distance x Saucony Endorphin Speed 5.
Our favorite Saucony shoe ever, inspired by the colorful world of Italian designer Ettore Sottsass, it mixes bold shapes, graphic lines, and just the right amount of neon. It’s movement, passion, and creativity all laced up, exactly what connects us with Saucony. And because we never do things halfway, it comes in a custom box and shoe bag, with our shared message loud and clear: FOR ALL RUNNERS.
The doors are open. We’ll see you at the bar.
We’re setting up something different.
Stay curious! A hidden access, a limited edition pair, only for those who find the way.
Le Relais, Distance x Saucony, the experience opens soon.
