About this race
Relais de la Pomme is a two-person road relay held in Dompierre-sur-Mer, Charente-Maritime, typically in early October. The format involves each runner completing 7.2 km for a total team distance of 14.4 km. It is linked to the local Fête de la Pomme and is listed on the New Aquitaine running calendar as a local, family-oriented race, distinct from solo distance events.
The course combines village streets with natural segments, featuring a section along the canal between Marans and La Rochelle. Over 800 runners participated in the last edition. The event also includes children's races and activities starting late morning, with childcare provided for young children. Now in its 26th edition, the race has a solid local history, maintaining its small-town relay character.
