À propos de cette course
Bieg Westerplatte is a 10 km street race held in Gdańsk, Poland, typically in early September. Its primary distinction is straightforward: it is Poland’s longest continuously organized 10 km street race. The name connects it to Westerplatte, a significant historical site in Gdańsk, lending the race more local relevance than a typical city 10K.
Recent editions have featured route adjustments, with the finish now located at Polsat Plus Arena Gdańsk, the city’s major football stadium. Results are recorded for the open field, age categories, and disabled athletes, indicating the start line accommodates more than just competitive club runners. Local organizations participate, such as the Pomorska Okręgowa Izba Inżynierów Budownictwa, whose participants described it as a “legendary” 10 km event.
