Steirischer Leukämiehilfelauf

The Steirischer Leukämiehilfelauf is an evening street run in Graz, Austria, starting at the ASKÖ-Stadion Graz-Eggenberg on Schloßstraße. Held annually since 2003, it offers a straightforward format: a 5 km race, a 2.5 km option, and separate children's and youth races. The youth events commence earlier in the afternoon, with the two main distances starting together in the early evening. The event typically attracts a field of 500 to 1,000 participants. The race supports leukemia aid in Styria, with its charitable purpose integral to the event. The course is a short road run originating from the Eggenberg stadium area, making it accessible for beginners, families, club runners, and those seeking a low-pressure charity run over a demanding distance. Hightech Timing provides the race timing, and registration is managed via the organizer's website, with historical finisher data indicating a consistent local participation of several hundred runners.
