ZDW Community run × KHS Training Club
Location: Tržiště pod Kaštany (start)
Date: 10 May 2026
Time: meet at 9:30 AM
Admission: Free
Do you run regularly, or are you just getting started? Come join the community run, organized in collaboration with the Zlín-based marketing agency KHS and their newly formed KHS Training Club, which you can join even outside of Zlin Design Week.
The event is open to everyone, so no pressure. You don’t have to be Usain Bolt to enjoy this part of the program. The entire run will be led by pacers Marek Smyčka, Jiří Vítek, and Michaela Sedlářová, who will adjust the pace to the group’s speed (expect a range of 6:40–7:30 min/km) and will support you, whether you run or walk.
WHAT WILL THE RUN BE LIKE?
- Approx. 5 km
- Beginner-friendly
Route:
Market Square under the Chestnut Trees → Peace Square → along Dlouhá Street to the soccer stadium → bike path to the hospital → turn onto the bike path on Tomáš Baťa Avenue → back to Market Square
A small reward awaits you at the end, or you can grab a treat at our Design Market. So don’t just sit at home—come join us!
FAQ
Can I join even if I have no running experience?

Do I need to register in advance?
No. Just show up at 9:30 a.m. at Tržiště pod Kaštany—feel free to come alone.
What should I bring?
Just comfortable athletic clothing. You don’t need anything else.
Will the program take place regardless of the weather?
Yes. We run even in the rain, as long as conditions aren’t dangerous. After all, there’s no such thing as bad weather, only a poorly dressed runner.
