The Bieg na Piątkę, part of the Garmin Half Marathon Gdańsk, is a 5 km city race starting at Polsat Plus Arena Gdańsk. It runs concurrently with the main half marathon during the September race weekend, offering participants a shorter, quicker option within the same event atmosphere as the full 21.0975 km race.
The 5 km course incorporates sections of the half marathon route, allowing its runners to experience parts of the same city course as the longer event. The recent Night 5k option takes place after dark, and the overall weekend features Junior Gdańsk children’s races, a prize for a Polish half marathon record, and connections to the Crown of Polish Half Marathons and the Crown of Pomeranian Half Marathons.
