Stadtlauf St. Gallen
The Stadtlauf St. Gallen guides runners through the old town of St. Gallen, Switzerland, passing the Marktplatz and the monastery district. This September city-running event offers distances from short children's races to 5 km, 10 km, 15 km, and 25 km. The program accommodates families, Nordic walkers, hobby joggers, and faster runners. The 10 km race is divided into a main category for those aiming for under 55 minutes and a Fun category, while the 5 km also welcomes Nordic walkers. The 15 km and 25 km Laufpaket formats allow runners to combine two or three races with a single start number, providing a way for distance enthusiasts to add kilometers on the same day. The Family-Run spans 1.1 km and requires at least one adult and one child. The youngest participants can join a roughly 150-meter run towards the mascot, Muskelkater. Youth entries also include a charitable component, with five francs from their participation donated.
