La Maraîchère de Feillens 2027

La Maraîchère de Feillens is a February road race held in Feillens, located in the Ain department of Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, France. It is timed to coincide with the Candlemas season. The primary running events are 5 km and 10 km races through the town, alongside children’s and junior courses. The 10 km serves as the event’s signature race, and the more recent 5 km offers a shorter, officially timed alternative. The Foulée FLO’wer variation is untimed and accessible to all participants. Bresse Saône Running is the organizer of this race, which is now in its 35th year and benefits a charitable cause. The event is designed for a broad audience, not just club athletes: walkers can participate in the Marche FLO’wer, younger runners have dedicated courses, and spectators line the route. Homemade crepes connect the event to the Chandeleur tradition, making the race feel like a local winter gathering as much as a town race.
