Jesienny Bieg Osiedla Winiary is an autumn neighborhood run on the Winiary estate, held on a September weekend. Based on the report, it functions as a local school-focused race day rather than a large road race: pupils participate in teams, boys and girls compete in age categories, and schools accumulate points based on their runners’ results. One school fielded over 30 runners and secured third place among primary schools in the powiat, trailing Primary School No. 12 and the school from Witkowo. Top individual performances included victories by Kornelia Rostkowska and Michal Nowacki, a second-place finish for Wanessa Sierakowska, and a third place for Oliwia Nowak, with other pupils contributing points that aided the team’s overall standing.
