Nearly 800 women from Bosnia and Herzegovina and around the world took part in the eighth edition of the Imlek PROTEIN Sarajevo Night Street Race, held last night on a symbolic route passing through three iconic Sarajevo sports landmarks: Grbavica and Koševo stadiums and the Zetra Olympic Hall. The 10-kilometer race saw Adam Lomb finish first in 31:02, while Tunde Szabo led the women’s category with a time of 38:02 — securing an all-Hungarian victory.
Race winner Adam Lomb shared that this was his first time in Sarajevo and described the experience as memorable. “The first few kilometers were easier due to the downhill, but the final stretch was challenging because of the incline. I ran solo from the sixth kilometer, focusing on keeping a steady pace. Running through the stadiums added a unique and impressive touch,” he said, adding that he was more focused on competing than on his finishing time.
The fastest local male and female runners were Berin Mušanović (37:02) and Emina Alagić (42:21), respectively. Special recognition for humanitarian spirit, the “Soul of a Man” award, was given to organizing team volunteer Asija Muslić for her selfless contributions to the community — a tradition honoring those who embody solidarity and support.
“This race is more than just a sporting event — it reflects Sarajevo’s spirit, its people, and energy,” said Elvedin Tunović, Executive Director of the Sarajevo Marathon Association. “Once again, we’ve proven that sport can inspire, connect, and drive change.”
This year’s race also featured a charitable element through the “Sell a Kilometer” campaign, raising funds to support children and youth from the “Older Brother, Older Sister” Foundation. The event carried a strong visual message of unity, with T-shirts and medals in blue and burgundy — the colors of rival clubs FK Željezničar and FK Sarajevo — symbolizing harmony.
The evening was enhanced by live performances from the Pop Rock School Sarajevo and DJ School Modular, while enthusiastic citizens cheered runners along the route.
Organized by the Sarajevo Marathon Association, the event is part of a long-standing effort to promote recreational running, healthy lifestyles, and urban tourism. Through initiatives like the Sarajevo Half Marathon and Run Fest Sarajevo, the association also emphasizes social responsibility and the positive impact of sports on the community.
