10K races near Wolsztyn

The Silesia Marathon is a 42.195 km road race in Poland that passes through three Silesian cities: Katowice, Siemianowice Slaskie, and Myslowice. The organizer states it is the only marathon in Poland and Europe routed through three cities, and it is the largest running event in Silesia and one of Poland's larger marathons. The route holds an international certificate. The event also features a half marathon, included since 2009. Children's and youth races are held alongside the adult distances, making the weekend inclusive for more than just marathoners. The setting is urban Silesia, a region with industrial centers, historic architecture, and a long past evident in structures ranging from medieval fortresses to Baroque cathedrals.

The Bieg Powstańczy in Lwówek is a 10 km road race starting and finishing on the town’s market square. The main event, the Dziesiątka Lwówecka, is part of the longer-running Bieg Powstańczy, one of Wielkopolska’s oldest uprising-themed races. The Center for Sport and Recreation in Lwówek organizes it, directing runners through the town center instead of a remote course. The route follows Lwówek’s city streets, keeping runners near the town center from start to finish. It is part of the Wielkopolska Uprising Race Series and contributes to the Nowy Tomyśl County Road Running Grand Prix, connecting it to regional history and local competition. The race’s character stems from this combination: a direct urban 10K linked to commemorating the Wielkopolska Uprising and the region’s past.
