    The founders of the Marathon in Košice had to make great effort and sacrifice in the difficult circumstances of its early beginnings so that they could build the foundations of today’s world-famous event. This book presents a historical survey of individual editions of the Košice Marathon. It gives the names and results of all the runners, as well as those who joined in organizing the yearly events as officials. A photographic appendix completes this modest volume, which is the first more comprehensive historical work published about the Košice Marathon.
