International Hallers' Run - Bieg Hallerów 2026

The International Hallers' Run, or Bieg Hallerów, links two Małopolska villages tied to General Józef Haller: Polanka Hallera and Jurczyce. It is a sports-and-history running event with three morning races: an individual run of about 10 km, plus team and family runs of about 6 km. The individual race starts first, followed by the team race and then the family race, so the day is set up for both serious runners and people coming with children or local groups. The start is by the kindergarten in Polanka Hallera, and the finish is at the gate of the former manor of General Józef Haller in Jurczyce. The event commemorates Haller rather than treating the route as just another local road race. Entries are capped at 250 participants, team participation is free, and late sign-ups are only possible if places remain. Runners receive start packages and commemorative medals, podium finishers get trophies, and the youngest participants receive gifts.
