Radom June '76 Half Marathon 2026

Get ready for a start that carries an enormous emotional and historical charge. The Radom June '76 Half Marathon is not only a sporting event, but above all a living monument to the workers who, in 1976, dared to oppose the communist authorities. The course leads through key places connected with those events, linking modern districts of Radom with its historic center. Although the race usually takes place in June—which often means battling high temperatures—the incredible support from residents and the awareness of the importance of this event give you wings with every kilometer 🏃‍♂️🇵🇱.

Once you cross the finish line and a commemorative medal hangs around your neck (often a small work of art referencing the symbolism of June '76), Radom invites you to a well-deserved rest:

Monument to the Workers’ Protest – after the race, it’s worth heading to the monument at the intersection of 25 Czerwca and Żeromskiego streets. It’s a moment for reflection and to pay tribute to the heroes commemorated by the half marathon’s name. This is a place where history becomes tangible, and your effort on the course takes on a deeper meaning 🌹🏛️.

Jacek Malczewski Park (Old Garden) – the oldest city park in Radom, established in the 19th century. It’s the perfect oasis of calm for a gentle “walk-off” for your legs. Shady paths, old trees, and the Mleczna River flowing through create excellent conditions for recovery after a run in full sun 🌳🦆.

Deskur Townhouse and the Market Square – the heart of the Kazimierzowski Town, which has undergone thorough revitalization. A stroll around the renewed market square and a visit to the multimedia Deskur Townhouse is a great way to relax without straining your muscles, while letting you discover Radom from the perspective of its centuries-old history 🏰🏙️.

Radom Aviation Museum (Sadków Airport) – if you’re racing in Radom, you can’t forget its aviation traditions. Although the Air Show is a separate event, Radom lives and breathes aviation every day. A moment of rest with a view of the sky above the city is classic Radom vibes ✈️☁️.

To replenish your energy after a “hot” June start, head to restaurants on Żeromskiego Street. Radom is known for its hospitality and generous portions. After such an effort, you deserve a solid dose of carbohydrates—local pierogi spots or restaurants serving modern Polish cuisine will quickly get you back on your feet. Don’t forget plenty of hydration, especially if the June weather took its toll 🥤🍝.

Remember: this race is about more than chasing records—it’s your personal tribute to courage and freedom. Are you ready to run in the footsteps of Radom’s workers? 🏁
