Corrida du Clos des Roches

The Corrida du Clos des Roches is an evening road race held in Roches-Prémarie-Andillé, commencing at the school complex on route des Tourbières. Participants can select either a 5 km or 10 km course. The race begins at 7:30 p.m., lending it the atmosphere of a local summer night run rather than a large-scale urban event. Smarves and Clain Athlé 86 are the organizing bodies, with the Smarvois club contributing a festive, welcoming character to the proceedings. The event has attracted over two hundred participants, with one edition recording 232 finishers. It also features athletics workshops for children aged 9 to 13 prior to the main race. The 5 km event can still be competitive, as demonstrated when Corentin Guilbot secured victory over Adrien Bertaud by a margin of 16 seconds.
