We are delighted to announce that the Poland Business Run charity race will start on September 3! The distance of the 5x4 km relay can be run as part of a traditional race in Krakow or a virtual competition along a route of your choice. The start fees of companies and corporations will help support the people in need in subsidizing prosthetic limbs, wheelchairs and rehabilitation. Registration starts on May 9.
This is already the 12th edition of the competition, which motivates you to put on your athletic shoes and integrate with your colleagues for a worthy cause. Following the example of last year, you can choose a virtual competition with an app anywhere in the world or a competition in Krakow (with a limit of 1800 relay teams, or 9000 runners). In both cases, the distance to be covered by each competitor is a friendly 4 km.
– At the competition in Krakow's Błonia Park, as last year, we guarantee the atmosphere and extraordinary emotions accompanying a major sports event. But we also do not forget about people who prefer to run virtually, that is, at their own pace, along their favorite paths or on vacation. Starting with an application is, in addition to the benefits mentioned above, also an opportunity to invite co-workers or customers from different parts of the world to participate, which we strongly encourage you to do – says Agnieszka Pleti, President of the Poland Business Run Foundation.
Registration for companies
This year, registration for companies will start on May 9 and will last until May 31 or until the limit of places is reached (in the case of the Krakow run). Several different start packages are offered in both formulas.
Team registration will take place online. You can set up an account in our system today and fill in your company's data, and after the start of the registration just add your teams.
Before that, you can complete information about the team members (name, email address, phone, date of birth). Remember that at the time of registration of the team you need the data of at least one person, the remaining 4 players can be completed until May 31.

Who are we running for?
By paying for the participation of corporate teams, you will help, among others, 41-year-old Hubert from Warsaw. In 2022 our beneficiary met with a motorbike accident, which resulted in a multi-organ injury and amputation of his right leg at thigh level. Before the amputation he was very active (gym, swimming pool, running). After the accident, he spent several months in bed. Thanks to hard work and rehabilitation so far, he is slowly getting back to daily functioning. Ahead of him is further physiotherapy and preparations for the purchase of a final prosthetic leg. His dream is to return to joint activities with his daughters, walks and bike rides. As he says himself, when he starts walking, he will be able to return to professional activity and full independence. Thanks to you, he will receive a rehabilitation camp!
We're still looking for beneficiaries!
People with physical disabilities and after mastectomy, who need rehabilitation, prostheses, wheelchairs or psychological assistance and would like to become beneficiaries of the Poland Business Run 2023, can still send in an application for support. If you have someone in your community who needs funding, be sure to let them know about our Foundation!
