Gelände der ehemaligen Landesgartenschau (Grünes Kabinett), Bayreuth
Mainauenlauf 2026 (branded for the jubilee edition as "Meinauenlauf") is a community-focused road running event held in Bayreuth, Germany, centred on the former Landesgartenschau grounds. The event combines scenic riverside sections along the Main with a notably hilly loop that includes the Col Bellota high point and a Wendepunkt at Colmdorf, offering a varied course for runners of different levels. The organiser MaliCrew e.V. promotes a festive finish in the Finisher‑Park with commemorative finisher shirts and medals as part of the 10th‑edition celebrations.
The programme covers multiple distances and age categories including a kids' run, 5 km, 10 km, and a 21.1 km half marathon, plus relay and Nordic‑walking options, and it hosts Bayreuth city championship titles across the main distances. Race services include professional chip timing, multiple aid stations, free bag drop, and changing/shower facilities at the Sportzentrum Ost pickup point. Participants register via the official event site and the linked RaceResult portal; the organiser provides detailed rules and the full Ausschreibung PDF on the event website.
