History inspires us
In autumn of 1919, on the occasion of the first anniversary of Czechoslovakia, Sokol prepared an unprecedented sporting event, which allowed the participation of the largest number of Sokol members, the so-called rozestavný běh on 28th of October. One hundred years later a new project called Sokol Run of the Republic inspired by the previous tradition was founded and with it the celebration of 28 October 1918 in the form of a series of runs organized throughout the country.
