Metal marathon carriageMarathon carriage in action
A marathon carriage is a modern metal carriage that is used for driving competitions, especially combined driving. It is named after the cross-country phase of a combined driving event which, though inaccurate, became known as the "marathon" phase.[1]: 7 The carriage is designed for safety and carries a driver plus one or two assistants, called grooms. Drivers direct the horses while grooms counterbalance the carriage on tight turns, and are available for assistance with the horses in case of an overturn or collision, or equipment malfunction.
