Sägerserie, 2. Lauf 2026

Sägerserie, 2. Lauf is a cross-country race in Berlin, starting at Sportplatz Heidenheimer Straße in Hermsdorf. It is one event in the Sägerserie, a three-race series that takes place annually in Berlin and Brandenburg, offering distances of 15 km, 11.25 km, 7.5 km, and 3.75 km. The organizer presents it with a dry joke: the most challenging cross-country series in Berlin and Brandenburg “since the invention of the chainsaw.” The event is characterized as small and demanding, as few runners reportedly attempt the full distance, and those who complete it receive the title “Säger,” or sawyer. The race offers practical amenities for participants: registration can be completed online, by phone, in person before race day, or at the venue. It is accessible by public transport and includes changing rooms, showers, refreshments at the finish area, race timing, online certificates, and published results, start lists, and photos.
