Great video! How far did they have to run?

About 200m up a pretty steep slope and then back again. Most of the participants then went on to run in the half-marathon event which took place immediately afterwards.

Great upload. Never done any running events before. I came 5th. In the black vest "Everlast". At least I wasn't last. The prize for last place, Dog Food & Pot Noodle did appeal to me. Anyway we can get hold of a better copy, happy to pay.

Excellent! Captures the mad spirit of the race! The winners used the Estonian hold - I think that it will be even more competitive next year!
