Distance racing 30 kilometers in Ukraine are not very popular among the running community, compared to other distances organized as part of running events. Therefore, races with a distance of 30 kilometers are quite rare. Personally, I think that the thirties remain a bit underestimated among runners.
Preparing for his first marathon, I really wanted to train first and run exactly thirty. In 2019, it was quite difficult for me to find a running event, where among the available distances you could choose 30 kilometers. Then I was rescued by Kharkiv, where the first edition of the race took place “Easter run” and then the main distance of the race was a race of 30 kilometers.
After that he wanted to find other Ukrainian running events, where the main distance of the race is thirty kilometers.
