Nordholzer Windmühlenlauf 2026

The Nordholzer Windmühlenlauf begins and ends at Willi-Wicke-Sportplatz on Mühlenstraße in Wurster Nordseeküste, a municipality on Germany’s Lower Saxony coast. It is a small June running event organized by the athletics department of TSG Nordholz u.Umg.v.1907 e.V., featuring afternoon races instead of an early-morning road-race setup. The program includes a 400 m Bambini race up to a full half marathon, with 2.6 km, 5 km, and 10 km options. Walkers are welcome in the 5 km and 10 km distances, and the event typically hosts between 0-100 participants. The race is designed for local club runners, children, walkers, and individuals seeking a manageable community event rather than a crowded city race. The Bambini race is for very young children, and adults may run with them without being officially scored. The 5 km race holds additional significance locally as it serves as the district championship for all age groups within KLV Cuxhaven. The event has a history spanning many editions, with past listings already in double digits and current materials referencing the Nordholzer Windmühlenlauf 4.0.
