Sokolský běh republiky - Prostějov 2026

The Sokolský běh republiky in Prostějov is a running event organized by the Sokol movement, taking place in Prostějov on the Czech national holiday in late October. It is part of the larger Sokolský běh republiky series and offers participants three primary race distances: a 10 km race named Desítka, a 5 km race named Pětka, and a 2.5 km option. The main races commence in the afternoon, following the children's races which are held first: a 350 m race for younger pupils and a 700 m race for older pupils. The 5 km race attracts the largest number of participants among the main distances, followed by the 10 km and 2.5 km races. This suggests the event functions as a local community race day rather than focusing solely on a single main distance.
