Yes, it almost feels unbelievable that we have “run” all the way to the anniversary year of the Apkārt Cēsīm race.
2026 marks the 35th edition of the race and the fifth since its revival.
We truly hope that on May 3rd, runners from across Latvia and beyond will find their way to Cēsis. Where else could you better test not only your speed, but also your leg strength, determination, and character?
The climb up Lenču Street will once again be a traditional challenge, while running into the finish at Cēsis Castle Park is an experience that simply cannot be replicated anywhere else.
The famous finish cookie will once again bring a smile, and the commemorative medal awaiting you at the finish line will be unique and one of a kind – just like the race itself.
So, do you really need any more reasons to come and enjoy a run in Cēsis this spring?
We look forward to welcoming you!
We are truly happy to see that many of you have already registered for the race during the first few days. Thank you for that!
