Kreis Waldlaufmeisterschaften Bochum 2026

The Kreis Waldlaufmeisterschaften Bochum is a cross-country running event held in Bochum, North Rhine-Westphalia, beginning at Weitmarer Holz. Typically scheduled for October, it starts in the early afternoon around 13:15. The event features a range of race distances: 9.7 km, 4.8 km, 2.5 km, 1.6 km, and 1.3 km. The championship caters to local forest running, with shorter distances suitable for younger participants, club members, and adults seeking a cross-country race without a significant distance commitment. Registration is available via the organizer's website, which also hosts start lists, results, photos, and reports. Limited reviews suggest a modest event, with one participant rating the atmosphere above the course's appeal, indicating a local race-day feel might be prioritized over a spectacular route.
