Šmarna Gora Races 2020

29/09/2020

 We announced at the start of September that the 25th Smarna Gora Record and the 41st Smarna Gora Race would be taking place on Friday 9th October and Saturday 10th October. We are happy to say that these events are still going ahead as planned and the organisers have made a further announcement about the Covid situation in Slovenia (see below).

Interested runners shall contact the local organising committee to agree their participation. They can find the details on the updated web page:   http://smarnogorski-teki.smarnogorska-naveza.si/
The organisers will offer special, stimulating arrangements to the runners who will participate both races. Smarna gora race hosted 18 the final race of the World Cup and in 2020 it was declared as “WMRA Greatest race all times”, which could be understood as the highest international recognition for the organisers.

COVID situation – 29. Sept. 2020

Please note:

“People who comes to Slovenia from an EU Member State or a Member State of the Schengen area, which is included in the green and orange list, may enter Slovenia list without quarantine and a negative COVID test.”

Šmarna gora Races 2020

The year 2020 was undoubtedly marked by the Covid19 virus. In March, the world began to turn a little differently. Thus, the implementation of running events in October will take place according to a customized
program.

In August, the organizers submitted a proposal for measures to the National Health Institute, which was approved. The confirmation was undoubtedly significantly influenced by the assurance that we will adapt the measures to the current situation, which may still change significantly between now and the day of the event.

In both events, the Friday Record and the Saturday Run, we will take into account the recommendations and requirements of the profession as much as possible. All phases of both events will take place according to a customized program – registration, start, the course, finish and of course the announcement of results. We will provide the necessary quantities of appropriate masks and disinfectants for hands and work surfaces, and we will manage the events in such a
way as to prevent physical contact and contact as much as possible. As we defined in the study, we will adjust the specific conditions to the currently valid rules.
