The Raidnight 41 is a night trail run organised in La Ville-aux-Clercs in Loir-et-Cher by the Association du Marathon du Perche-Vendômois. Participants can enter as solo runners, relay teams or canicross duos, with distances ranging from around 23 km to 41 km over the often muddy, hilly tracks of the Perche-Vendômois. The event sets off after dark and deliberately keeps the exact solo distance secret, creating an adventure that may last between 25 and 41 km. A 25 km hike is also offered for those who want to discover the countryside at a gentler pace.
