Trail de boeuvres-corbinieres - Guipry-Messac

Trail de Boeuvres-Corbinières, also known as Trail BBC (Boeuvres-Baron-Corbinières), is a trail running event held annually in autumn in Guipry-Messac, Brittany. The races take place in the wooded areas surrounding Baron, Boeuvres, and Corbinières. The event begins at the pond in Baron and offers race distances of 45 km, 32 km, 18 km, and 8 km, alongside a 5 km night run. Registration is limited to 1,000 participants, positioning it as a significant local event. The courses wind through a hilly forest region bisected by the Vilaine river, providing participants with woodland trails, ascents, and a natural setting rather than a predominantly road-based route. USGM Athlé initiated the Boeuvres trail in 2004 with 250 runners at the Boeuvres castle grounds; the event subsequently relocated to Baron and was renamed BBC. Family participation is encouraged, with "bambino" races available for children aged seven and up. Complementing the race, the club maintains an active training schedule at George Hochard stadium, offering sessions for children, adult groups on Tuesday and Thursday evenings, summer runs, and Sunday outings on local paths.
