We have put a scene this weekend on the big weekend
13 After the brutal stage, after the three-month Oktanian competition, the World Cup reaches its dramatic final after the Oktanian competition. And where better this year’s champions are crowned than Smharna Gora’s icon slopes, a rich place of the history and reputation of the mountain.
Slovenia attracts a central stage for this final screening, hosting a mountain running weekend blockbuster that promises the edge race. The operation starts in the hearth of the Velelan Plan, on Saturday, August 23, one last lungs in the race. Then all views apply to Smarta Gork for Grand Finale: classic up and hairdresser race to determine the final winners of the World Cup.
Velika Planina follows 2010. During the 2010 World Cup World Championship and 2017 2017 Championship in 2010. This route is scheduled to host the European Road Run Championship in June 2026, so it will not only be tested for the World Cup competitors, but next year he will provide clothes for some athletes targeting the championship. It is an 8.5 km course, 1280 m ups, starting from Kavajitsitic and graduating from graduation.
The next day, the World Cup is leading 20 km, a scene and race of many competitions of the World Cup for years with the history of deep mountain. Smarna Gora began in 1979, and it is absolutely “mandatory” in the race calendar. In 2020, it voted the largest mountain race of all time by the public in the WMRA survey. Smarna Gora may not happen in the high mountains, as part of the world’s other cup lottery, but it packs punch in its 10 km, 350 m descended.
The two race shows the best of Slovenian mileage and culture. Velika Planina is a race of alpine scenery, forests and lawns, and it offers pan-painted scenes about the Kamenik-Savinyan Alps. It is also a house that has been left in Europe, from the villages of the remaining high mountain shepherds with olive huts. They bring them to their cattle to grazing on the cruise on what is a centuries-old tradition.
Smarna Gora Race takes place on the famous hill of the area, which boasts the Baroque Church dates back to 1711. And because they take on this shocking, in places, technical route, they will enjoy the views of Kamenki and Julian Alps.
There is a particularly strong community spirit, the long history of local residents, maintaining its traditions, while the innovations are taking part in sports.
The best fields are gathered in both men and women’s race. Five of the top 10 women in the World Cup classification table will be like a racing original line, and 9 of the top 10 men will be in operation on weekends.
Women race
Scout Adkin (Hoka Eu) is currently the women’s field in an incredibly completed or first or second, but in one race she has been nominated for this year’s World Cup. Unfortunately, he is unable to compete for this weekend, for the last month’s world championship last week, which he received in the last month’s last month. His closest opponent, Valentine’s Jepkoech Rutto (Atletica Saluzzo) will work and race, and he has proven to the same number of different types of race, if not so consistent.
Gloria Chebet (Run2Gethets), another consistent performer, is currently in the Fifth World Cup, but here’s good results can be seen that he jumps in the absence of Joyce Muthoni Njeru and Philies Jeruto Kisang. It will really be exciting to see the Nelly Clement (Gap Hautes Alpes Athletism) after that after that breakthroughlose, where he won the classic crane race. Only 22 years old, he was definitely one of the growing stars of this year’s World Cup.
Andrea’s mother (Koliru) continued to prove that she is still at a high level this season, and no doubt will be one of the athletes to put the PACE. Elle is currently lying on the eighth place in the World Cup tournament table, followed by the mother and will also compete with two events. Kirsty Dickson’s Race is a Race of Race in the World Cup for the British Crane Trial, so it can be viewed, particularly in a classic crane race.
Susanna Saapanki (on the run) will work smarna GORA race with its last 10th best finish, Sier arming. He has a strong record in Smarna Gora, doubling here, winning the race and record in 2023 and finished the fourth last year. Alice Gaggi (Brooks), another huge competitor, will also leave the line in Smarna Gora.
Legendary locals, Lucia Cookk (Šd Nanos) and Nuša Mali (Ad Kronos), also have strong records and are expected to be presented high. There will also be a strong, young military group from the US, including Courtney Coppinger (Brooks) and Kyla Christopher-Moody, which will be interesting to watch.
Men’s race
Paul Machoka (Atletica Saluzzo) tops the men’s World Cup and has participated in all races, except the broken arrow, reaching incredibly consistent results. But he could catch Philimon Aimen’s Kirio (Run2Getes), which, like Macoca, will work both tribes. Michael Sello Saoli and Richard Omaya Atuya (like Run2geathes), which have seen each other this year with another epic in the world cup in the third and fourth place. These three athletes made the Chair of Smarna Gora Race last year.
But the main threat to them can come to Patrick Kippingeno (Run2GETES), which has not seen so much in the World Cup this year, but he had a very strong run for two weeks ago to take the second. Equally, Joshmat Kiprotich could also be in danger with the Run2Gethets team. Lennkuraru (Pegakenya) also returned to 2022 after the second second, and it would be interesting to see what he can produce in his return.
For men, European challenges are Andrea Rostan, Andrea Elia (Topo Athletics) and Henri Aymonod (Northern Face), all of which are driving two races. Alberto Vender (new balance) will take part in Smarna Gora Race to reach the sixth place last year. Hakob Adkin (New Balance) continues to return to his top competition, as we saw in Vauban, and could be good to be seen this weekend.
The former local winner Timotej Bečan (Tekači) will know how to compete so much better than many, and his teammates, Luca Kovaichich and Klemen Shaning, have a good success in Smarna Gora Record. As for the women’s race, the strong American runners team travels to Slovenia, including Andy White and Yere Gillingham.
