A new emerging tradition in Kretinga – a run for Piotras Silkinas' birthday. The marathon runners were the first to start, but the longest distance was kicked off by the man of the hour, P. Silkinas, who began at dawn and completed this distance in 7 hours, 26 minutes, and 9 seconds. This year, the fastest in the marathon distance was Andrius Preibys, who finished the course in 2 hours, 42 minutes, and 3 seconds, improving his own result from last year.

Highlights

  • P. Silkinas was congratulated by the mayor of Kretinga District, Antanas Kalnius, who gave the start signal to the runners.
  • The chief specialist of the District Culture and Sports Department, Erikas Žiubrys, presented a bouquet of flowers to the runner, while participants and spectators greeted with loud applause.
  • Running offers three distances: the marathon (42.2 km), 10 km, and 3 km.
