BĚKODO – květen III

BĚKODO is the 40th edition of a traditional running stage race in Teplice, open to recreational, fitness and competitive runners aged 15 and over. The race consists of the ten highest-scoring starts during the season; in the event of a tie, the faster time decides. The timekeeping limit is 35 minutes, after which runners are recorded as 35+. A separate Mladé BĚKODO series is available for younger runners. The event is organised by TJ Lokomotiva Teplice and BK Běkodo.

Only runners aged 15 and over (born in 2011 or earlier) may take part. Younger runners may enter the separate Mladé BĚKODO series. The race is held mostly on Wednesdays, except for the third round, which takes place on Saturday, 18 April (the Čudla Vorlíček Memorial). The race uses a multi-stage format, with the option of counting the 10 best performances. Registration is open to runners aged 15 and over. The race takes place in the natural surroundings below Teplická Doubravka.
