TARTAN TRACK 400 m
The 12th annual Prague Hour Race will close the entire walking season at the Atelitky sports center in Prague - Radotín on Saturday, November 1, 2025.
The new date was necessitated by circumstances. The European Athletics Masters Championships will be held at an unusually late date in Madeira this year, with the 18.10 km competitors starting on October 20. A number of regular participants in the Prague race would therefore be in Madeira, including the main sponsor and organizer of the event. Josefa Bad luck, who will be on the Portuguese island seeking to expand his collection of veteran medals.
However, this is not the only change associated with the Hodinovka this year. For the last 3 years, walkers have met at the AC Praha 1890 stadium. Last year's 11th year was undoubtedly very successful. Race records were broken in both men and women (Linke / Olyanovská), the weather was kind to us and there was something to see. However, the disproportionately increasing costs forced the organizers to consider what to do with the race next. It is also true that although it was quite a sandstorm on the 250m long track, the track was full to capacity. Those foreign competitors who improved their national records then had problems with the size of the oval.
With the opening of the newly renovated certified stadium in Radotín, Prague, the choice for this year was clear. Radotín is in the vicinity of the company SMOLA KONSTRUKCE, has beautiful facilities, a covered grandstand and one insignificant plus in terms of walking. The second league competitions of the Prague Slavist Béček football team take place right there. And because Pepa Smola, as we all probably know, has been a Slavist since birth, it couldn't have been a better connection.
The good news is that the organization of the race will be taken over by SC Radotín led by Petr Dubský, the same club that organized the Czech Indoor Walking Championships this year. As you can see, there is experience with walking here, and a new club will be involved among the walking organizers and enthusiasts.
The organizers are already looking forward to your participation in the 12th year of the race, you can look forward to all the traditional race tracks. So write it down in your training logs, diaries and phones:1.11.2025 we are closing pedestrian the season 2025 se SMOLA KONSTRUKCE By the hour v Radotíně.
