Ogolnopolski Bieg Kleszczow na Piatke

Kleszczów na Piątkę is a national road race held in Kleszczów, a town near Piotrków Trybunalski in central Poland. The name suggests a 5 km distance, and recent winning times, around sixteen minutes, are consistent with this length. The Kleszczów running program also includes the Kleszczowska Dziesiątka, a 10 km race. The participant field is modest, offering a local feel without being minuscule. One edition attracted close to two hundred participants, and the 10 km event recorded 130 finishers. Recent participants have included club and regional runners from locations such as Kraków, Bełchatów, Brzeziny, Skoczów, and Kleszczów. Children’s races are also organized, making the day suitable for participants of all ages, not just adults focused on performance. The Polish Running Association is listed as the organizer for the Kleszczów races.
