Aug. 29th, 2026
Polygyros | Central Halkidiki
Lace up your running shoes for the milestone 10th Polygyros Run Halkidiki, returning on late August to transform the capital city of Halkidiki into a vibrant hub of athletic endurance and community spirit. Organized by the Halkidiki Health Runners Club, this fast-paced event beautifully blends sportsmanship with regional discovery, routing runners through both the historic urban center and the scenic mountain landscapes surrounding Polygyros.
The race layout caters to all fitness levels and age groups:
-
14.6 km Mountain-City Run (18:15): A challenging, multi-terrain race designed for endurance runners looking to tackle elevation shifts between the town and nature trails.
-
5 km City Run & Power Walk (18:00): A highly accessible race loop weaving through the main streets of Polygyros, perfect for casual runners, walkers, and families.
-
1 km Children’s Races: Dedicated, free-entry races split by age groups to encourage health and athletic fun among younger participants.
All three races conveniently start and finish at Heroes’ Square, right next to the newly renovated Archaeological Museum of Polygyros. Every participating athlete receives electronic timing tracking, full medical and refreshment station support, a technical t-shirt, and a commemorative finisher’s medal to mark their achievement.
