Registration for the Poland Business Run 2026 is now open!
Registration is now open for the 15th edition of the Poland Business Run! This year marks the anniversary edition of Poland’s largest charity business relay race, which for years has combined sporting energy with helping others. From 12 May, runners can register their teams and join an event that engages thousands of people across Poland and beyond every year.
This year’s Poland Business Run will take place on-site in Krakow and Warsaw, and thanks to the virtual format, participants will be able to run from anywhere in the world. What remains unchanged is the most important thing – the idea behind the run. The slogan “You run, you help” simply reminds us that taking part in the relay provides real support for people with physical disabilities, after amputations and mastectomies – the beneficiaries of the Poland Business Run Foundation.
How do I sign up?
Joining the Poland Business Run 2026 is really easy! It only takes a few steps to join the anniversary edition and help the beneficiaries alongside us.
1) Put together a team of 5 people – you can register one or more teams.
2) Create an account at bieg.pbr.pl/en/ and log in.
3) Choose the starter pack that best suits your team.
4) Give your team a name and enter the details of at least one participant.
5) Confirm your registration and you’re all set!
When does registration close?
The main registration period for the Real, Real Plus, Virtual and Virtual Plus packages runs until 10 June at 11.59 pm. However, it’s best not to delay your decision – for the in-person races in Kraków and Warsaw, registration may close earlier once places are fully booked.
You can join the race with the Real Charity, Virtual Charity and PBR Walk packages until 27 July at 23:59.
We are accepting entries from participants with Virtual Eco packages until 27 August at 23:59.
How does the Poland Business Run help?
The entry fees paid by participants in the Poland Business Run provide real support for people with physical disabilities, after amputations and mastectomies. Thanks to the funds raised during the run, the Poland Business Run Foundation finances, amongst other things, the purchase of prosthetics, wheelchairs, and orthopaedic and sports equipment, as well as rehabilitation and psychological support for beneficiaries.
Last year alone, thanks to the involvement of 46,000 runners, 159 people received support. Over the course of its 15 years of operation, the Foundation has already supported nearly 1,400 beneficiaries, demonstrating that every kilometre run can make a real difference to the lives of others.
When and where are the races taking place?
The running competition will kick off in Warsaw. On 30 August at Bemowo Airport at 9.30 am, a charity relay race will set off. On the same day at 12.30 pm, the PBR Walk will also take place – an option for those who prefer walking to running – and in the afternoon, the youngest participants will take to the route as part of PBR Kids.
From 31 August to 6 September, the virtual edition of the run will take place, allowing anyone from anywhere in the world to join the Poland Business Run. The format remains a team event – each participant must cover 4 kilometres, which can be run, walked, or completed by marching or using Nordic walking poles. The most important thing is working together, as the team’s result will only be counted once all its members have completed the distance.
The Kraków section of the event will last two days. On 5 September at 9.30 am, the relay race will start, the PBR Walk is scheduled for 12.30 pm, and in the afternoon the PBR Kids races will take place.
The following day, 6 September, participants will run the relay again at 9.30 am, whilst the afternoon will be dedicated to the youngest runners as part of PBR Kids.
