We have reached the jubilee. Although every race is an anniversary for us, this one is special and that is why we have an irresistible desire to dedicate it to our constant, but not so dear visitor, the mosquito (lat. Domesticus Vampiricus). And the Danube, along which the path of our race passes, has always been a favorite gathering place for many generations, both people and the previously mentioned mosquitoes.

Therefore, mark the first weekend of the summer of 2024 in your calendars as the perfect time to run along the Novi Sad quay at night, some faster and some slower, and parade despite the mosquitoes, smeared with various repellents, just to annoy them that they cannot drink your blood.

See you on June 22 at the start of the 15th Night marathon, the one and only.
