The history of the Deux-Sèvres region has been marked by motor sports, of which Bressuire was one of the great strongholds.

A few heirs of the great era took up the torch 16 years ago in the form of a vintage car-motorcycle rally and other customized machines. The grand prix takes place in the city, with trials, a night race, a parade and a prize-giving ceremony.

The surroundings of the Poitevin Marsh are ideal for boat walks, cycling and hiking. We know that and we appreciate it. What we know a little less is that over the last five years, the maraîchins paths have been welcoming long-distance runners once a year. The Maraisthon association is organising an eco-marathon. In other words, a 42,195 km race organized in a sustainable development approach around the beautiful village of Coulon. Signalétique, bags, gobelets and other banners are designed in natural, recyclable and biodegradable materials. Assistance to runners during the test - the tests since a 10 km is also proposed - is also provided by electric vehicles. The customers, snacks and lots provided to the participants are organic. And of course, the selective sorting and cleaning of the course. In short, if you want to take part in a 100% nature-respectful test, it is at the Maraisthon that you need to go.
