24h Mad Chicken Run 2026

Runners at the 24h Mad Chicken Run navigate a 2 km Moto Cross track in Kolkwitz, Germany. The longest format extends for a full day and night. It is a trail race offering several distances: 10 km, 22 km, and 42 km runs, a kids' 2 km run, a 6-hour three-person team event, a 24-hour five-person team event, and a 24-hour solo option. The loop is short but demanding, with each lap featuring 19 hills and approximately 60 meters of climbing. This makes the race more stop-start and punchy than a flat road ultra. The field is capped at 50 participants, indicating a small event rather than a mass race. This listing marks the seventh edition. It is not eligible for ranking and has no IAU label. The appeal lies in the unique, challenging format: completing a hilly motocross loop repeatedly, as dictated by your chosen distance, team strategy, or 24-hour endurance.
