News Summary:

The French Athletics Federation (FFA) recently highlighted its historical alliance with TotalEnergies Aviation, commemorating its 25th anniversary of partnership in 2020 and the FFA's 90-year anniversary in 2019. This follows earlier news from January 12, 2026, when reports detailed that the new Health Prevention Pass (PPS), valid for one year, would cost five euros for each non-licensed runner starting January 15, 2026. Previously, on December 4, 2025, the FFA faced criticism for the paid health pass, which replaced the medical certificate for race participation, and struggled to establish itself in the running community. This opposition intensified following a November 24, 2025, announcement that saw running event organizers consider withdrawing from the federal structure due to the uproar over the unilaterally decided paid PPS, which the FFA officially announced on November 14, 2025. Earlier, on November 17, 2025, FFA Vice-President Emmanuelle Jaeger defended the federation's strategy in "Ouest-France," describing the amount for the new PPS as "symbolic" after the initial outcry against its introduction as part of the federal plan for running.
