Timekeeping

Timekeeping is solved by RFID wristlets. Because to lend normal timekeeping devices is very expensive but at the same time we want to increase quality of the race, we have decided to find out our own system of tracking the competitors. Reason for this is very simple – the more money we save the more will go directly for those in need.

RFID cipy - naramky

Timekeeping: Along the track and also at the finish line are several checkpoints where you need to sway your wristband chip.

This charity run is organized by us in our free time claiming no reward via Športuj srdcom association.

Collecting of bottle caps

Part of our race is also to collect PET bottle caps for a little girl – Sabinka. We would like to ask you to bring as much of these as you can at the race day 13:00. Three people contributes the most will win prizes from our sponsors.

Individual relay sections

1 km
Elevation: +370m / -270m

The most demanding part of the track. 90% of this section leads trough forest nature trail of Baba mountain chain (green mark). On the track you will fight against long ascending and more difficult descents. You leave the forest next to the electric substation and continue via road to Svit – Pod Skalkou.

1 km
Elevation: +270m / -130m

Half of the second section leads by narrow forest trail via Kimbiark mountain (Bôrik) by the green mark, leaving the forest by a longer descend on a meadow until power station in village of Mengusovce (different from the first and second year). You will use an iron bridge over the Poprad river and continue by the meadow for the next 2km to village of Štôla.

1 km
Elevation: +0m / -130m

The longest but the easiest section of the race which suits for those runners not really enjoying the hills. From the village of Štôla you will run directly to the forest trail and afterwards a long meadow to village of Batizovce. From the streets of Batizovce you will then run to the beautiful lakes Štrkopiesky and via the longest asphalt road to the finish line.
