39th Glauchau Autumn Run

The Glauchauer Herbstlauf (Glauchauer Herbstlauf) is an annual community running festival centred on the Sachsenlandhalle in Glauchau, Saxony, with a full day of races and supporting activities scheduled for 25 October 2026. The event programme for 2026 includes a range of distances from a 0.2 km besico Bambinilauf for the very young through 1.1 km childrens races, a 3.2 km family/company run and Nordic walking, up to a 10.0 km race and a 21.1 km half marathon, with chip (transponder) timing used for the main running distances. The route descriptions highlight mostly flat, scenic courses around the Stausee Glauchau and Schlossteich, and the organiser provides on-site services such as baggage storage, showers and refreshments to support participants and spectators.

The event places emphasis on inclusion and community: a Special City Run in co-operation with Special Olympics Deutschland in Sachsen e.V. is offered with a limited field, and there are team categories and separate Westsachsencup classifications. Practical arrangements are detailed in the event regulations and athlete documentation, including online registration deadlines, postal or pick-up options for race numbers, and late-registration windows on 24 and 25 October; all finishers in the Herbstlauf categories receive a finisher medal and there are award ceremonies and tombolas during the day. Participants should consult the official participation conditions and event information for precise rules, cut-offs and ticketing details.
