Set sail on the first leg of a legendary local trail running challenge at the **Trail des Pirates - Challenge Bro An Oriant on Sunday, January 25, 2026**. This event kicks off the eight-race Bro An Oriant series with two great options: an 8 km route starting at 9:45 AM and a more challenging 16 km at 9:30 AM, both starting from the Salle Pierre François in Lanester, Brittany. With online registration mandatory and closing on January 24th, runners must secure their spot in advance, as no entries will be taken on race day.
Note that French sports regulations require a valid PPS (Passport de Pratique Sportive) or FFA license for entry; traditional medical certificates are no longer accepted. At just 12€ for the 8K and 15.20€ for the 16K, this is an affordable and exciting way to dive into the competitive trail scene, with awards for top finishers, espoirs, and juniors, plus a drink ticket included with your bib. Pick up your packet on the morning of the race and get ready for a classic Breton trail adventure.
