The 9th year of the Innogy Winter Run is taking place in Brno tomorrow, raising funds for the Za sklem charity organisation. The event is going ahead with support from South Moravian Governor Jan Grolich and the mayor of Brno, Markéta Vaňková.
Cross-country races of 8km and 4km (the actual length of the track is 8.6km and 4.3km) will take place at the KOMEC – Brno JIH complex. Organisers say that it could happen that participants are running in the snow.
