5th Bled 10K Night Run 2011
Bled (Slovenia), Saturday 9 July 2011
A crowd of over 1,700 runners finished last year's Nočna 10ka, a 10K summer night run around Lake Bled, Slovenia's picture-postcard alpine tourist destination.
Starting at 10pm, competitors run one and a half laps along undulating roads.
After the race, all participants will be awarded a ‘kremšnita’, Bled's famous cream-cake.
In 2010, the top night runners were Boštjan Hrovat (32:30) and Daneja Grandovec (37:19).
