Severinslauf - Dauerlauf im Severinsviertel 2026

The Severinslauf is a local road race in Cologne’s Severinsviertel, offering 5 km and 10 km distances on city streets. The 5 km race begins at 11:00, with the 10 km starting at noon, making it a late-morning neighborhood run. Both distances are open to all age groups, and DauerLaufVerein e.V. organizes the event. The route stays within the Severinsviertel, a Cologne quarter known for its distinct neighborhood character. The race has been a fixture in local running for decades, historically shaped by community involvement and individual effort. While its organization transitioned from a club-based format to a private sports-marketing structure, the race remains rooted in its origins. Participants receive a complimentary finisher or starter shirt, online certificates, and refreshments. A current fundraising appeal indicates that additional support is required to ensure the continuation of the event.
