12 heures de Ceyzériat (Ain)

On October 23, 2027, runners will converge on the picturesque college parking lot in Ceyzériat for an exhilarating endurance challenge. The heart of this race lies in its unique format: solo or relay teams of two or three members navigate a loop course measuring 6.3 kilometers with a cumulative elevation gain of 300 meters. Participants must complete each lap within the tight window of 60 minutes to qualify for the subsequent round, pushing their limits as they aim for maximum repetitions.
The event is designed around intense competition and camaraderie, offering both solo competitors and relay teams opportunities to shine. With a limited number of spots available—120 solo entries, 20 duos, and 20 trios—the race quickly fills up with eager athletes looking to test their mettle on the challenging terrain.
The course itself is predominantly off-road, comprising 95% dirt paths and trails that wind through scenic landscapes. As runners tackle steep climbs and fast descents, they will encounter various challenges throughout the day including best climber and sprinter contests for both men and women, hidden prizes, and accolades for top lap times.
Amenities are plentiful at the race venue, with changing rooms, showers, restrooms, and refreshment stations available all day. In addition to these conveniences, on-site podologists and osteopaths provide support to help runners recover between laps.
This event promises a dynamic mix of physical challenge and festive atmosphere, making it an unforgettable experience for endurance enthusiasts.
