Slovakia 23 September: border Siatorska Bukovinka - Zvolen

A day of cheers and smiles...


Deň usmiatych tvárí...

The flaming torch of friendship has crossed the border between Hungary and Slovakia to travel around slovakian land in the next 6 days.


O pol jedenastej prekrocila horiaca pochoden priatelstva Madarsko-slovenske hranice, aby putovala uzemim Slovenska pocas nasledujucich 6 dni.

Filakovo lived for World Harmony Run today. Streets were overtaken by children from 5 schools.


Dnes Filakovo zilo Behom Harmonie naplno. Deti z 5 skol obsadili ulice mesta v nadsenom ocakavani prichodu bezcov.

We heard about the history of this beautiful city from the mayor at the city hall.


O historii tohoto krasneho mestecka sme sa dozvedeli na mestskom urade, kde nas privital starosta a sarmantne uradnicky.

Hundreds of hands and smiles were decorating our way through the whole city. One long line...


Nasa trasa cez Filakovo bola lemovana rukami deti, cakajucimi na bezecky pozdrav tlapnutim. Obrovska stonozka, ci skor storucka...

In Lucenec, a full square cheerfully greeted runners and the message of world harmony and frienship. Here, the event was filmed by JOJ TV and broadcasted in the early news.


Plné námestie v Lučenci nadšene privítalo bežcov a posolstvo harmónie a priateľstva. Tu nás natáčala televízia JOJ a reportáž z Lučenca a trasy odvisielala v prvých správach.

Mayor of Lucenec Ing. M. Marko was awarded with the Torch Bearer Award.


Primátor Lučenca, Ing. M. Marko, bol ocenený Medailou Nositeľa Pochodne.

Students from high school in white T-shirts led us through the city. They really can run fast and far...


SPS Stavebna odetá v reprezentačných tričkách školy nás sprevádzala celým Lučencom. Žiaci nás prekvapili kondičkou a dali naším menej oddýchnutým bežcom zabrať...

Slovak olympionic representants, Palo Blazek and his daughter Zuzana joined us in Vidina and he ran with us all the way until Zvolen. He liked the spirit of the run so much, that next year he would like to join for a few days, if he has free time.


Vo Vidine sa k štafete pripojil Paľo Blažek s dcérou Zuzanou, naši slovenský olympionici a zostali s nami až do Zvolena. Myšlienka Harmony Runu sa mu páčila natoľko, že by si na budúci rok rád vzal dovolenku a pripojil sa na pár dní.

Children in Detva helped us to bring the torch into a ceremony in front of the cultural centre.


V Detve sme za pomoci deti dobehli pred kulturny dom, kde prebiehal kulturny program.

We saw performances of disco and breakdance dancers. They definitely drank a lot of jumping juice!


Videli sme vystúpenia tanečných dvojíc disco a breakdance. Určite vypili veľa gumidžúsu!

Harmony is the secret hidden in the torch...


Harmónia je tajomstvo v pochodni..

After 85 km in a nice weather for running, we reached Zvolen. There we were welcomed by the city representative.


Po 85 kilometroch behu v príjemnom počasí pre nás, bežcov, sme ukončili dnešnú trasu pred mestským úradom, kde nás privítal zástupca mesta.

– Jana Chochlikova
