12th Ormož Half Marathon 2013

The Ormoški Mali Maraton in eastern Slovenia offers a half marathon, a 10km and a 5km run, and children's races.

The start and finish are on the athletics track of Ormož, a small town situated on a terrace above the River Drava and the border with Croatia.

The route is an undulating out-and-back course on country roads through agricultural land in the Lešnica valley, which runs from Ormož northwards through the picturesque Slovenske gorice hills.

Over 250 runners took part in last year's Ormoški Mali Maraton. The half marathon winners were Tadej Kaluža (1:14:15) and Vesna Pliberšek (1:35:32).
