Half Marathon races near Zgierz

Zgierz Base Miles

Zgierz hosts 10 Half Marathon races in 2026 within 80 km of the city centre — upcoming dates, recurring series, and other races nearby, all in one place.

Locals keep running simple in Zgierz, with steady laps through Park Poniatowskiego, Park Miejskim, park 3 maja, and the streets that stitch BTG, Krolewska, Rychtelskiego, Lakoszyn, and the railway viaduct together. The main loop is 95 km with 13 m gain, so it works for an easy Z2 loop or short intervals. The longer route is 78 km with 50 m gain when base miles need more room. Towarzystwo Gimnastyczne „Sokół” is the named local club, and XL Bieg o Srebrne Czolenko Wlokniarskie, Bieg Terenowy Zgierz Malinka, and VIII Charytatywny Bieg Provi Run are the anchor events people name-check.

Locals ride a mix here, with road biking routes, gravel biking routes, mountain biking routes, and trekking bike routes all on the menu. One route runs 8 km with 72 m ascent and 103 m descent, and 87% of the way stays smooth under your wheels with dedicated cycleway. Another route covers 7 km with 348 m ascent for real gran fondo legs. One route is 5 km with 155 m ascent, and Mazovia PRO 2016 is the hard anchor name.

May and July are the months when most people get on their bikes here, and runners get the same sweet spot for clean base miles, park loops, and tempo days. Summer keeps the Andrespol to Zgierz route honest, with the maximum altitude reaching 241 m and enough quiet roads, suburban stretches, and villages to make longer rides feel easy to extend. Winter changes the rhythm instead of killing it. Locals keep running on the flatter city loops, riders pick their cleaner road or gravel windows, and Malinka’s ski slope with a lift becomes part of the cold-season sports map.
