Běh Dlouhými záhony

Běh Dlouhými záhony is a 6.8 km cross-country race in Úpice, a town in the Trutnov district of the Královéhradecký region. It takes place in November, with the first category starting at 9:30 AM. The race is mixed-gender, organized by TJ Maratonstav Úpice, and the course is also known as “Pětka.” The route is short but challenging: it is a hilly cross-country course, not a flat road run. Following the race, the day concludes at the town hall in Úpice, where the top Czech climbers are recognized in the afternoon. This detail lends the event a distinct uphill-running character, despite the listed race distance being under seven kilometers.
