Mosonmagyaróvár (Hungary), Sunday 20 May 2012
The Szigetköz Minimaraton brings runners to the spa town of Mosonmagyaróvár in the north-eastern corner of Hungary, close to the borders with Austria and Slovakia.
The route is a 16km loop through fields and villages in the Szigetköz, a 50km-long flat tract of land which is bounded by two rivers, the Danube and the Moson-Danube.
Last year, over 150 runners took part in the Minimaraton. The winners were Gáspár Csere (49:53) and former Paris Marathon winner Judit Nagy Földingné (58:33).
The event also includes a 4km run, which had about 240 finishers.
