The DNA of Adidas MaXi-Race
More than just an experience, the adidas MaXi-Race is an invitation to travel , adventure, and self-discovery amidst unique landscapes. Whether you're running solo or in a relay , whatever your level and goals—from ultras to intermediate distances and short trails —we offer routes that will allow you to explore the mountains while enjoying Lake Annecy . By traversing unique and unspoiled paths , you'll discover exceptional views of the lake while immersing yourself in the culture and treasures of Haute-Savoie.
In the early editions, the Race It was organized by a handful of runners belonging to the DSN74 association . Over the years, the ranks have grown, and now nearly twenty local sports and non-sports associations are involved in the event. Today, the adidas MaXi-Race brings together around thirty passionate runners throughout the year and more than 750 volunteers in the final stretch.
Over the years, the adidas MaXi-Race has evolved to allow all runners, regardless of their profile or performance level, to achieve their goals in a magnificent setting. Each edition is an opportunity to incorporate new themes, allowing us to stay true to our values and our runners.
