Ljubljana (Slovenia), Saturday 6 May 2017

With approximately 6,000 participants in three races, the Tek trojk ("Troika Run") in Ljubljana is one of Slovenia's most popular running events.

It forms part of the annual celebrations that commemorate the liberation of Ljubljana at the end of World War Two.

Participants must form a team of three runners (male, female or mixed). All three team members must run the full distance, and all three must cross the finish line together. It is not possible to run as an individual without a team!

Starting in Ljubljana's beautiful historic centre, both the 12.5km and the 29km routes are single-loop courses that take the runners through the eastern part of the city and across the densely-wooded Golovec hill.

Some portions of the course are on gravel roads or trails.
