Zone 58 2026

Zone 58 is a road race held in La Machine, a town in the Nièvre department of Bourgogne-Franche-Comté in central France. It takes place in late October, offering 5 km and 12 km race options. This allows runners to select a short town race or a longer road course without committing to a major distance event. The race embraces a playful spirit, featuring a "Farfelu" category, which translates to quirky or oddball. Alongside this, it includes in-town races, children's and junior courses, and a night race. The format appeals to experienced runners seeking a manageable autumn race, beginners participating in an organized event, and families looking for shorter youth races within the same program.
