The annual ROSA RUN sports festival will be held on October 10-13, 2024. Traditionally, the May competitions will be held this time in October. For four days during the races, participants will be surrounded by the autumn colors of the Rosa Khutor resort.
ROSA RUN is the first and only 4–day running festival in Russia in the mountains. In 2024, the event will be 9 years old.
On the first day, one of the most difficult races will take place - ROSA PEAK: runners will have to overcome 7 km along the ski slope to the top of Rosa Peak Mountain, and the maximum climb will be 1150 m.
The second day of the festival is dedicated to the ROSA QUEST team race. The distance is about 10 km. Participants will pass tests and complete tasks at various stations of the running route.
On the third day, the ROSA CARNIVAL, beloved by all participants, will be held. Participants in costumes will run a distance of 2.1 km, and the best images will be awarded with special prizes and gifts.
On the final day, novice trailrunners will try their hand at the ROSA GREEN TRAIL for 8 km, and more experienced runners will take part in the ROSA RED TRAIL for 26 km.
All participants of the festival will receive a trophy T-shirt and will be able to collect a collection of author's medals for each race. Sports and educational daytime and entertainment evening programs are also traditionally waiting for guests.
"ROSA RUN is a special event in the life of our team. An incredibly warm festival, a celebration of sports for the whole family. In 2020, we already held it in the fall and now we will repeat this experience. Milder, more stable weather, golden foliage and mountain views will decorate our competitions. I hope even more participants will discover the ROSA RUN festival," said Vladimir Sheikin, CEO of ROSA RUN.
"We are glad to host this popular holiday of sports and good mood again. I am sure that all participants of the festival will experience only the most positive emotions from the impressive mountain landscapes, the possibilities of our resort, overcoming themselves at distances and the joy of victories. From year to year, the number of fans of running in the Sochi mountains is growing, which is not surprising - the ROSA RUN program is always distinguished by a variety of formats and an excellent balance between sports, knowledge and entertainment. Everyone will find something important and interesting for themselves," said Alexander Belokobylsky, General Director of the Rosa Khutor resort.
