A crowd of over 1,700 runners finished last year's Nočna 10ka, a 10K summer night run around Lake Bled, Slovenia's picture-postcard alpine tourist destination.

Starting at 10pm, competitors run one and a half laps along undulating roads.

After the race, all participants will be awarded a ‘kremšnita’, Bled's famous cream-cake.

In 2010, the top night runners were Boštjan Hrovat (32:30) and Daneja Grandovec (37:19).
