Andrassy Avenue and Heroes' Square define the 32nd Decathlon Futoest: a major street run through historic terrain after dark. Runners pass beneath iconic statues and through evening illumination, where the phrase "running in the light, an experience in the night" feels quite apt when the square is lit.
The route winds through downtown sections, over pavement where tram sounds, conversations from outdoor cafes, and summer night ambiance blend with the rhythm of footsteps. Novices, families, corporate groups, relay teams, and seasoned runners all partake in the same nocturnal setting, racing toward the finish line in a location "where the lights never sleep," concluding with a unique medal for the night.
