10K   12:00 - Start & Finish at the Old Town Square

      The WARR Race takes place in conjunction with the Mattoni Grand Prix

 5K 01:30 - Start & Finish at the Old Town Square

 

Both races start and finish at the Old Town Square.  The course is a 5km loop through the historical city center, leading across and along the banks of the river Vitava, under the spectacular panorama of a beautiful Prague castle.  A music festival (PIM Prague International Marathon serenade) taking place along the course will make this a truly impressive and extraordinary event for WARR 2004 participants and spectators.  Take a look at some pictures in the photo gallery at PIM: www.pim.cz.   WARR participants running in the 10K will have a great experience running along side world-class runners in the Mattoni Grand Prix.   Past winners in the Mattoni Grand Prix have included Haile Gebrselassie (ETH) in 2001 with a time of 28:07 (rec.) and Paul Tergat (KEN) in 1997, 1998, and 2002 with a time of 28:14.  The Chip-Winning time ranking system will be used for time keeping.
