1. Night marahon 2010. report

Despite the storm and rain the race was held. Because the storm and rain are just weather events that are not allowed to spoil good mood, desire to run, have fun and dance with friends. Besides good music, loud neighbours (that stole our race center spot), we had great light so the event was complete.

Final number of starters was 256.

Race center was fairly crowded

This was an international event. We had runner from Slovenia, Macedonia, Croatia, Bosnia and Hercegovina and Montenegro. It was impressive that this many people came from that far for the first edition of an event. Not to forget are runners from Serbia from: Subotica, Apatin, Bor, Belgrade and other cities. The situation is for no comment – just for admiration.

Decibel

Rock bends are not expected on the marathon – that made the whole thing even more special.

The event was not just about the competition. You can find that anywhere. We tried and hopefully succeeded to make somethin different and fun through this event. For that were responsible young rock bands, fire dancers and our big neighbours from Exit Reload party.

This was a new running movement, that first wants to have fun, and then everything else. We were happy to be able to host MK Delta from Skoplje, Macedonia,
