5TH ZAGREB21 POSTPONED!

By Zagreb21 0

Dear fellow runners,

 

Despite to all our efforts we have to postpone and find a new date for 5th ZAGREB21 powered by Heineken 0.0 – the popular Zagreb Spring Half Marathon. Almost all major sport events in Europe are postponed or cancelled amid coronavirus outbreak and we had no possibilities to go further with the organization. In addition, the special measures impose from authorities in Croatia are likely to be further tightened and a large part of our runners from abroad are currently unable to travel to Croatia.

 

We are truly sorry and we aware of how much effort you put in your training and how eagerly you expected to run in Zagreb in March. We encourage you to continue with running which is one of the best ways to stay healthy. ZAGREB21 this year should be the Balkan Half Marathon Championship and the Croatian Half Marathon Championship. We will continue to make an agreement with the Croatian and Balkan Athletic federations and with other fellow organizers to find the most appropriate term for the race. In the next 15 days, we will announce the new date. Our wish, if the opportunities allow, is to stay in spring period with our half marathon.

 

The runners that are registered for the race do not have to report anywhere or confirm their participation in the postponed race – all start packages will be automatically transferred to the new date when published. Stay healthy and don’t forget to run on Sunday morning!
