INFORMATION FOR PARTICIPANTS

 

The Sokol Run of the Republic in Brno will take place in a LARGE RACE format. This means that time is measured by professional timekeeping. At the finish line, the organizers will award the fastest runners. And what will you get from the organizers?

A beautiful medal in the shape of the republic awaits everyone at the finish line.
