Ekiden de Guéret is a road relay marathon held in Guéret, located in the Creuse department of France’s Nouvelle-Aquitaine region. Rather than a single runner completing the full 42.195 km, teams of six divide the marathon distance among them. The race is scheduled for late March. Published start times indicate both 9:00 AM and 4:00 PM, making current race instructions important.
The format is the primary draw: it offers clubs, friends, and groups of varying abilities a method to share a marathon without requiring each participant to run the entire distance. SSports Athlétiques Marchois organizes the event, with COURIR36 managing the timing. Race details mention live GPS tracking, a fan zone, friend alerts, and results delivered via email.
