1. Limburger 12-Stunden-Lionslauf 2026

The 1. Limburger 12-Stunden-Lionslauf is a 12-hour track run held in Elz, Germany. It takes place on the 400-meter tartan track at Sportverein Elz, located at Am Sportplatz 10. Participants can run from 7:00 to 19:00, choosing to complete a few laps, an ultra distance, or the entire 12-hour duration. The event is organized by the Lions Club Limburg-Mittellahn / Förderverein Lions Limburg-Mittellahn. Its purpose is explicitly charitable, with the entire participation fee donated to charity. The course is a straightforward, measured, flat tartan oval with no elevation changes, ensuring each lap is accurately counted and comparable. Electronic timing records every performance, automatically capturing 50 km and 100 km splits. Remaining meters are measured after the 12 hours to allow for rankings and best lists. Anyone completing at least one lap can be included in the classification. This makes the event suitable for walkers, casual runners, club athletes, and ultrarunners seeking a certified distance. Finishers can also receive a certificate detailing their distance covered.
