The dress rehearsal also ensures maximum running fun for the kids. Between 200 m and 800 m, our little heroes are sent out onto the track and can give it their all. While the younger Bambini run around 200 m, the slightly older Bambini can look forward to more meters. The well-deserved rewards are already waiting at the finish line.

General Information
Accompanying the children
- Only one person may accompany the child to the start area, onto the course, and into the finish area. Everyone will cheer enthusiastically from the sidelines.
- The accompanying adult must run alongside the child to prevent overcrowding in the start area.
- You cannot participate with a stroller, baby jogger, or similar equipment.
- We ask that you only accompany children up to age 4 into these areas. This helps foster independence in our little ones.
- Photos and videos of your children may only be taken from outside the course.
Event process
- The children will be sent onto the course in starting waves.
- In the age groups up to 4 years old, where an adult may accompany a child on the course, children running on their own will start first, followed by those with an accompanying adult.
- Please leave the finish area promptly after you’ve received your well-deserved rewards. This will help us avoid congestion at the finish line.
- After crossing the finish line, all children will receive a medal, a certificate, a small surprise, and water.
- Please keep the entrances and exits clear so that all children can get to the starting line without any problems and find their parents at the exit.
- Please follow the instructions of our team and the safety staff.
