Prószkowski Bieg Uliczny im Piotra Blachucika 2026

The Prószkowski Bieg Uliczny im. Piotra Blachucika begins and ends at the Municipal Stadium on Sportowa Street in Prószków, Opole Voivodeship. The primary event is a 10 km road race, typically in September, limited to 150 participants. It takes place on closed streets, giving it the feel of a local sports day rather than a large urban event. Before the adult 10 km, children and teenagers compete in shorter races on the stadium grounds, with distances ranging from 100 m to 800 m. The 10 km route consists of two large loops on a mixed surface, covering Powstańców Śląskich, Partyzancka, Ogrodowa, and Sportowa streets. Participants have 1 hour and 50 minutes to complete the course. The race commemorates Piotr Blachucik, who was a physical education teacher for 25 years, founded the Sprinter Prószków inter-school sports club, and later served as its president and coach. His contributions to modernizing the Municipal Stadium mean the stadium start and finish hold significance beyond mere convenience.
