ChampionMan Duathlon 2027

When classic running isn’t enough, and you don’t really feel like swimming in a wetsuit, it’s time for a duathlon in truly championship style! 

ChampionMan Duathlon Czempiń is an absolute legend on Poland’s endurance-sports map and the biggest event of its kind in the country. For one weekend, the Greater Poland town of Czempiń turns into a vibrant, cheering, full-throttle duathlon capital, attracting both complete first-timers and elite athletes. The organizers have prepared two flagship, spectacular run-bike-run distances: Sprint (5 km run, 20 km bike, 2.5 km run) – perfect for a fast, dynamic start – and the signature ChampionMan distance (10 km run, 60 km bike, 10 km run) for the real hardcores. The cycling routes are famous for their excellent, smooth surface that practically forces you to smash personal bests, and the transition zone and finish right in the city center guarantee an incredible, almost European atmosphere. Czempiń is in a brilliant location – right by the S5 expressway, just 30 minutes south of Poznań, so you’ll get here in no time from any corner of Poland 🚗

When you cross the finish line with burning thighs, but also enormous pride and a unique medal, it’s time for a well-deserved celebration. The area around Czempiń and nearby Poznań offer plenty of great options for spending the rest of the weekend with family or your other half 😉:

A walk in the Greater Poland National Park: Located just a stone’s throw from Czempiń, the park is a green oasis. A peaceful stroll by Lake Góreckie among century-old forests is the perfect way to actively recover your tired legs 🌲.

Uncovering the secrets of Kórnik Castle: Head out on a romantic trip to nearby Kórnik to tour the neo-Gothic castle with its beautiful arboretum. The legend of the White Lady and a walk by the lake guarantee a great afternoon vibe 🏰.

An atmospheric evening on the Old Market Square in Poznań: A short drive to the capital of Greater Poland will let you soak up a big-city vibe. A dinner for two surrounded by colorful townhouses and the famous Poznań billy goats is the perfect crowning touch to a sporty weekend 🏛️.

Traditional Greater Poland “pyry z gzikiem”: After burning thousands of calories on the run and bike courses, you need to properly recharge. Order the region’s absolute classic – pyry z gzikiem (potatoes with thick, seasoned quark) – or a hearty portion of duck with potato dumplings and red cabbage 🍽️.
