3. Kronplatzrun 2012
3. Plan de Corones Run 2012
Bruneck/Brunico (Italy), Saturday 9 June 2012
Start of the race is in Bruneck/Brunico.
The first two editions of the Kronplatzrun mountain race were relatively small events with less than 100 finishers, but it may be different in 2012 as several changes have been introduced. Entry fees have been reduced, the course has been shortened from 30km to 25km, and the race has moved from September to June this year. The event takes place in Italy's alpine province of South Tyrol ('Südtirol' in German, or 'Alto Adige' in Italian) where most people speak German as a first language. Starting in the pleasant town of Bruneck (Brunico, 835m), the race is run entirely on asphalt and dirt roads. Overall, the course includes over 1500 metres of ascent. The finish is on top of Kronplatz (Plan de Corones, 2275m), a massive mountain with a rounded top. In winter, Kronplatz is a popular ski area. A 38km mountain bike race (Kromplatzbike), will be started 30 minutes before the running race. |
