Leipzig 10K Run/Walk

A cool 46°F at the start line is ideal for fast times — expect to warm up quickly once you're moving. Temperatures rising to 56°F through the course will gradually increase perceived effort in the second half. Light winds shouldn't be a major factor for pacing.

Race Info

The Leipzig 10K starts on Am Sportforum next to the Red Bull Arena and heads straight into the Clara-Zetkin-Park and the Johannapark. It follows the Scheibenholz racecourse, then joins the marathon and half marathon route at Schleussiger Weg for the last kilometers. The course crosses the Pleisse and the Elsterflutbecken, passes the Sportbad an der Elster, and ends on the long finishing straight near the sports science faculty. Walkers share the same course.
