Fouesnant周辺の5Kレース

The Trail de Pleyben begins and concludes at Gymnase Pierre Cloarec in Pleyben, Finistère, offering four trail races. Organized by APEL Saint Joseph de Pleyben, this event marks its 21st year and serves as the concluding stage of the Challenge Armorik Trail. The primary Canal PopKorn race covers 44.5 km with 1,250 m of elevation gain, intended for experienced, well-prepared runners, not novices. The long course departs Pleyben via local paths and woodland tracks, descending towards the Nantes-Brest Canal and its towpath. It continues past Pont-Coblant before proceeding through Gouézec to Roche du Feu, reaching an altitude of 281 m. Following a swift, technical wooded descent back towards the canal, participants will pass the Victor, a navigational monument, then ascend towards Pleyben on trails through Lennon. The course combines technical terrain, runnable sections, ascents, and descents. A two-person Canal PopKorn relay divides the distance into 18.5 km and 26 km segments, with a limit of 50 teams.

Registration was closed to ensure the safety and order of the races, with local associations assisting in trail maintenance, security, and event operation.

The Course au large - Fouesnant is a local race in Fouesnant, organized by Sport Nature Aventure. The source provides no distance or route details, but indicates a community event with civic and military guests, rather than a race primarily described through elite results. Twelve sailors from the French Navy training ship Chacal participated, led by their commander, Ensign Foucauld Redoulez, as part of the French Navy’s 400th anniversary. Anne-Marie Quéméner, the first Fouesnant woman, received a special prize: the Chacal’s tape de bouche, presented by the ship’s commander. Ensign Clothilde Simon, then training at ISAE in Toulouse, also received a prize, presented by Bruno Merrien, Fouesnant’s first deputy mayor.

Foulées Guengataises takes place in February in Guengat, a village in Finistère, Brittany. It is a local race day featuring short children’s runs, adult running options, and an 8 km walk or hike. The main race is La Guengataise at 15.5 km, with approximately 210 metres of elevation gain. An 8 km race is also offered with about 120 metres of climbing. Shorter 1 km and 1.7 km options are available for younger participants. The event appears to be a community-focused Breton gathering with reasonable entry fees, organised locally, where runners and walkers share the same morning in Guengat.

Les Boucles du Steir was a city road event in Quimper, Finistère, Brittany. Scheduled for mid-February, it featured a 10 km road race and two walking events, catering to both runners and walkers, not exclusively competitive road racers. The 10 km run followed a single 10 km loop through Quimper’s streets. Walkers could select the same 10 km loop or a shorter 5 km loop. A past edition attracted over 500 participants. The event is no longer held; it was succeeded by the Ar Meilhou Glaz Trail, which continues a race presence in the city with a different format.

Trail Entre Mer Et Terre is a running event in Ploemeur, Morbihan. Its next edition is scheduled for March, with the specific date yet to be confirmed. The event features two distances: an 18 km race commencing at 15:00 and a 5 km race starting at 16:00. The race format provides participants with a choice between a longer run and a shorter late-afternoon option. The name translates to “between sea and land,” reflecting Ploemeur’s coastal setting in Brittany. However, the current listing lacks detailed course descriptions or terrain specifics.

Foulées de Plomeur is a local running event in Plomeur, Finistère, Brittany, organized by Courir à Plomeur. The schedule includes timed 4.9 km and 9.9 km races, an 8-9 km hike, and three children’s races for ages 4-5, 6-8, and 9-12. The main races are open to cadets, juniors, seniors, masters, club-licensed runners, and runners without a licence, serving as both a community race day and a regular stop on the Breton running calendar. The courses combine road sections with hiking trails; both adult distances are approximately half road and half nature. The longer race consists of two 5 km loops and includes a refreshment point. Kilometre markers and marshals at intersections ensure the route is clear. Children can register on site with signed parental permission. Hikers and runners can sign up online or on the day. The event donates 1 euro from each bib to Rêves de Marmouz.
