Rith (Irish pronunciation: [ɾˠɪh]) is a relay race organised in support of the Irish language.[1][2] It was held for the first time in 2010 and coincided with Seachtain na Gaeilge, the Week of the Irish Language.[1] The original race started in Belfast and finished in Galway.[1] Each race traverses both the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland.[3][1] Foras na Gaeilge partly funds the race.[1]

Rith is a spin-off from the Korrika, a relay race organised in the Basque in support of the Basque language since 1980.[1] It has since spun off the Correllengua in Catalonia;[4] Corsa d'Aran in Val d'Aran (also Catalonia);[5] Correlingua in Corsica; 'La Passem' in Gascony; and Ar Redadeg in Brittany.[4]
