cwiercmaraton komandosa
Ćwierćmaraton Komandosa is a demanding 10.55 km military-style race in Słupsk, northern Poland, held in May by the Sub ventum foundation. The distance may seem modest, but each participant must wear a full service uniform and carry a backpack weighing a minimum of 10 kg, making it more akin to a loaded field test than a standard road race. The course crosses Lasek Południowy, presenting runners with hills, steep ascents, sharp descents, mud, and sand. It attracts several hundred participants, comprising police, firefighters, other uniformed-service members, club athletes, and civilians opting for the same conditions. The race is a component of the Commando Slam, a six-race challenge that also features the 100 km Commando, Commando Marathon, Commando Half Marathon, Commando Knife Race, and Torturer's Race; all must be completed within a year to achieve the distinction.
