Corrida de Marcelcave 2026

The Corrida de Marcelcave is a 5 km road race held in Marcelcave, a village within the Somme department of Hauts-de-France. Taking place in November, it is organized by the Cercle Olympique Samarien. The race features an FFA-labelled, measured course, suitable for runners aiming for an official 5 km time or a French Championships qualifying mark, though the organizers state it is open to all skill levels. The route circulates within the village center, comprising three loops with the start and finish located on the village square. The circuit is described as very fast, flat, and straightforward, leading to its division into two 5 km races: one for participants under 23 minutes and another for those over 23 minutes. It is included in the Challenge de la Route 80, has a bib number limit of 500, and traffic is halted around the course during the event.
