Baneasa Forest Run
Baneasa Forest Run is an amateur running event, with two annual editions, spring and fall. Each event is preceded by several training sessions and followed by a recovery session. Each edition highlights an organization and a social cause to which runners can donate.
The first edition, the spring one, took place on April 29, 2018 and gathered over 700 participants for the two events - 11 km cross-country and 21 km half-marathon.
The spring edition is about the joy of running through the forest in nature that comes to life, among enchanting landscapes and the raw green offered by spring, in a friendly atmosphere.


The second edition took place on November 4, 2018 and gathered over 1,000 runners at the start for the two events - 11 km cross-country and 21 km half marathon. Baneasa Forest Run thus became the Baneasa Forest race with the most runners at the start in 2018.
It's the only truly autumn edition. With running on a carpet of golden leaves. But it's not just about running, it's also about the landscapes, the rustle of dry leaves underfoot, the smell of fresh air and the chirping of birds.
Let's not forget about socializing at the finish line, in a friendly atmosphere with fellow runners.
At the third edition on March 24, 2019, the social cause was to support Hope and Homes for Children. Runners had the opportunity to be fundraisers and donate for the children of the Bogza family.
Baneasa Forest Run is a memorable experience, a run in the middle of nature in the city. An event with a friendly atmosphere, an opportunity to socialize with other runners and rejoice at a good result or simply for the pleasure of running.
