The Lubelski Bieg Niepodległości is a Lublin running event held on Polish Independence Day. The race begins in the city’s Saski Garden, with the national anthem starting the morning. It is structured as a school-and-family event rather than a typical road race. Primary school pupils compete in separate grade groups, followed by older students who start with parents and teachers. The entry limit is reached for each edition, and the organizer provides a set number of bibs, divided equally between the start groups. The race concludes the Lubelski Biegowa Triada Pamięci, a series focused on remembrance. This series also features the “Lublin July 1980” Solidarity Run and the Run of Memory of the Victims of Communism. NSZZ “Solidarność”, the “Solidarity of Family Movement” Foundation, and the Lublin branch of the Institute of National Remembrance organize the event under the slogan “Solidarity for an Independent Poland”. All participants receive a free package including a returnable bib and a collectible medal. Category winners are awarded prizes after their runs, and two surprise prizes are drawn from all participants at the conclusion.
