Warsaw prepares for 36th Independence Day Run

The 36th Independence Day Run in Warsaw is set to feature a flat, fast 10-kilometer course designed to facilitate high speeds and potential records. The route will primarily utilize Jana Pawła II and Niepodległości Avenues, passing through central Warsaw toward Pole Mokotowskie and including a section on Prosta Street.

This year's event has seen record-breaking interest, with all 22,000 starting packages for the main race sold out more than two weeks in advance. Due to the high number of participants, organizers have slightly adjusted the route, extending the section near Prosta Street to ensure the exact 10-kilometer distance is maintained while providing more space for runners and event infrastructure.
