AV Spirit Wintercup 2026

The AV Spirit Wintercup is a winter running and walking series in Lelystad, Flevoland, with a race on the first Sunday of each month from October through March. It is AV Spirit's primary recreational running event in the city, offering sportier runners proper distances to compete. The program typically includes an 800 m KidsRun, a youth or short course of about 2 km, 5 km and 10 km runs, and a 5 km walk. All races start and finish on the AV Spirit athletics track, with routes extending into a wooded area near Lelystad. The field is intentionally broad, welcoming children, adults, AV Spirit members, non-members, first-timers, walkers, club runners, and experienced runners. Entry fees are kept low, late registration is permitted, and the event is capped at approximately 500 participants. A Business Run is also included, allowing local teams to participate alongside individual runners and walkers.
