More than 2000 runners have registered already for this 7-kilometre Saturday night run through Slovakia's capital city Bratislava.

The start is at the River Park, a complex of new buildings on the River Danube, located approximately 1.5 kilometres from the city centre. The complex includes a five-star hotel, luxury appartments, restaurants and shops.

The route runs along both banks of the River Danube, and then through Bratislava's pretty historic centre. The finish line is on Hlavné námestie, the central square in the old town.

Running across the impressive Danube bridges is for sure a real highlight of the course.

In addition, several shows and performances will take place at the start and at the finish.

In 2009, the winners were Juraj Vitko and Dana Janečková.
