Marathon Vert Rennes
The event in Rennes takes place on 17 and 18 October 2026 and proposes six race formats on urban routes. Distances and formats include:
- Marathon: 2 loops in Rennes, Label OR International FFA.
- Marathon Relais Ouest-France: relay over the marathon distance for four runners.
- Marathon Duo Bati-Armor: marathon distance shared by two runners.
- 10 km Lamotte: nocturnal 10 km, measured, Label OR International FFA.
- La Féminine Yves Rocher: 5 km nocturnal, Label Bronze régional FFA, exclusively feminine.
- Marche Familiale Yves Rocher: family walking event open to all ages.
The marathon course is described as very rolling and 100% urban, with on-course animations. Several formats run on Rennes streets, including relay and duo options that share the marathon route.
The event includes an explicit environmental commitment. Organizers partner with the Fondation Yves Rocher and apply the rule 2 km parcourus = 1 arbre planté. The stated objective for 2026 is an increase of 150 000 trees. Over 14 years participants helped plant 1 734 739 trees in several countries.
