18th Schwerte Ruhr City Run

The 18. Schwerter Ruhrstadtlauf (Ruhrstadtlauf Schwerte) is a community road running festival held in Schwerte, Germany, that mixes youth events, mass-participation races and Nordic walking. The programme for 12 June 2026 places shorter distances and youth relays in the afternoon while longer-distance races are scheduled as the evening’s highlight, giving the meeting a two-part format across the day. The event is organised locally and emphasises family-friendly relay formats and a prominent Nordic Walking competition along the scenic Ruhrtalradweg.

Racing and registration information is published on the event website and handled via the stated RaceResult registration channel, with historical results and photo galleries available for previous editions. The event is staged around the GWG Schwerte Arena (Schwerte‑Westhofen) and is organised by Stadtsportverband Schwerte e.V., with contacts and the event office listed on official pages. Local sponsors and a tradition of annual results and galleries underline the event’s established role in the Schwerte sporting calendar.
