. STOP-MIKULÁS FUTÁS Tatabánya utcai futás

The STOP-Mikulás Futás is a Santa Claus road race in Tatabánya, Hungary, taking place in December. The race center is located at the Fellner Jakab vocational school in Sárberek. It is designed for families, beginners, and casual runners, as well as regular club runners. A 200 m children’s race is available for kids up to age 10. Additionally, there are 1.9 km and 5.9 km options that can be completed by walking. Registration and changing facilities open in the morning, and the children’s race begins before the longer distances. The adult course is run in laps. The 1.9 km distance consists of one lap, and the 5.9 km race involves three laps. The route is not entirely closed to traffic, meaning participants must adhere to pedestrian traffic rules. The Santa theme is evident in the awards and post-race activities. Every finisher gets a gift from Stop Cukrászda, presented by Santa. All 200 m finishers receive medals, while age-group podiums are recognized in the longer races, with additional prizes awarded at the venue. Past event details mention greasy bread, hot tea, and soft drinks available post-finish, contributing to the race’s local winter community atmosphere rather than a large-city race-day setup.
