City Run in the District Town
Wildeshausen, as a district town, has a compact historic city center — ideal conditions for a city run that brings the route and spectators close together. Laufzeit utilizes this location and leads the laps through the market square, main streets, and smaller city center alleys. Residents line the route and create the typical city run atmosphere.
Four Competitions
The event offers a deliberately broad selection: 4 kilometers Nordic Walking as a beginner and walker route, 4 kilometers run for beginners and students, 8 kilometers as a popular middle distance, and 12 kilometers for ambitious hobby runners and club athletes. This selection covers the entire spectrum from family runs to competitive training.
Schedule for an Afternoon
The entire event — start, routes, finish lines, and award ceremonies — is concentrated in the afternoon between 2:00 PM and 4:10 PM. This compactness distinguishes Laufzeit from all-day running events and makes it an accessible competition for the region.
Registration and Organization
Registration is online via the platform portal.run-timing.de until April 22, 2026. On-site late registrations are possible to a limited extent. The organizer is the Laufzeit Wildeshausen organizing committee, which works closely with the City of Wildeshausen, the police, and local sports clubs.

Routes Through the City Center
The routes follow the tight loops offered by the Wildeshausen city center. They lead across the market square and main streets, past the Alexanderkirche and the Hunte river. The compact route design ensures a high spectator density and particularly supports the shorter distances.
Compact Schedule
With just over two hours from the start to the finish deadline, Laufzeit is a concentrated competition format — ideal for families who don't want to invest the whole day, and for club runners integrating a race into their Saturday schedule.
