Absolutely! The European Running Championships 2027 are open to everyone — both elite and recreational runners will share the excitement of competing for the European title.

Yes, absolutely! Non-European runners can join any distance. Their finish times will appear in the official results but won’t count towards individual, team, or country rankings.

The Country Ranking is the ultimate team challenge, where the top 25 runners from each nation—both elite athletes and passionate recreational runners—combine their finishing times in every race and gender category. The nation with the fastest total time takes home the victory and the glory! It’s a fantastic opportunity to run for your country, showcase its strength, and be part of something truly special!

Yes, but it’s simple! When you sign up, you’ll select the country you’re representing. Then, when you pick up your race pack, just bring a valid photo ID (like your passport or national ID) to confirm it. That’s all you need!

We understand that plans can change. You can transfer your registration (an additional fee will apply) or withdraw from the race at any time, but please note that entry fees are non-refundable.

If unforeseen events prevent you from participating—or if the event is cancelled or postponed due to extraordinary situations such as pandemics, natural disasters, war, public disturbances, or government restrictions—the organizer is not able to refund your fees.

The good news is that all registrations will automatically transfer to the next edition of the event, so your spot is safe and you won’t lose your participation.

Registration may close early if the participant limit is reached. The organizer may adjust the race route and/or the start and finish locations if needed. Registration and payment on race day are not available.
