Handover of the Host Flag

World  Masters Mountain Running Championships 2025 was held in the Italian town of Meduno, the last week in August. Our athletes were able to compete and brought home several medals.

Our organizing team (LOC) TJ Maratonstav Úpice, led by its president Mr. Karel Šklíba, then ceremoniously took over the flag from the hands of the WMRA representative Mr. Tomo Šarf and the Italian organizer Severino Bozzer. We thank WMRA and the organizers of the WMMRC 2025 and we believe that our WMMRC 2026 in Janské Lázně Town will also be a success. Our organizing team has been working very hard.
