Alternative Four Days Marches Event (Nijmegen event canceled, but Worldwide Event Will Happen)

[mtneer92]

Good Day All.  Just want to share something.  Each year since 1909 (with the exception of a few years for WWI and WWII and COVID) the Four Days March that starts in Nijmegen took place.  The event in the Netherlands was cancelled (again) in 2021 BUT you can walk over the four days, which is coming up soon (20-23 July 2021).  

From the website: "This year, we have had two magnificent medals designed as a reward and souvenir of the 2021 Alternative Four Days Marches: a silver medal for the 5, 10 and 20-kilometre distances, and a gold medal for the distances normally walked during the traditional Four Days Marches: 30, 40 and 50 kilometres."

  So, be sure to register for the event!  I know that some of you can do 50km each day for the 4 days!

It's great to see how these events are slowly coming back to life, there are so many of these activities that I'd love to do in the coming years. 😀
