Sokolský běh republiky – Žamberk
The Sokolský běh republiky in Žamberk will be held as a VELKÝ ZÁVOD, meaning it will be professionally timed. Prizes will be awarded to the fastest runners, but every participant will receive a starting package with a bib and gifts from organizers and partners. A medal shaped like the republic awaits everyone at the finish line.
On-site registration will incur an additional 30 CZK fee and may be subject to capacity limits. Participants registering on-site are not guaranteed a starting package or medal.
