Wed, 03 Aug 2022
The 2022 Bucovina Ultra Rocks mountain running competition was held from 29th July to 31st July 2022. ASSIST Software sponsored the 15 km race - Rumble Rock 15k - for the third consecutive year. This race involves running a trail that starts at Rarău Mountain and ends at Câmpulung Moldovenesc. The positive elevation is only 510 meters, making the route suitable for any running enthusiast, regardless of their physical condition.
Bucovina Ultra Rocks is the most significant running competition organized in the Bucovina Mountains, divided into seven races and spread over a total distance of 220 kilometers. 900 runners attended this year's edition, and 150 volunteers were present to ensure the smooth running of the event. From our ASSIST Software team, ten colleagues registered for the 48, 33, and 15 km races.
Running through the mountains of Bucovina
Bucovina Ultra Rocks is a sports event that promotes a healthy lifestyle and, at the same time, the beauty of mountain scenery. Being divided into different races and difficulty levels, everyone was welcome to participate in the race corresponding to their physical abilities. From children to adults, we lined up at the start of the races to venture into the coolest mountain running competition in Suceava County!
ASSIST Software has now sponsored the Rumble Rock 15k race three years in a row. Once again this year, we were present on Rarău to kick off the 15k challenge that ends with the famous Runc ski slope climb. Along the race, participants can feast their eyes on the spectacular views. The Carpathian Mountains host a rich fauna and flora, being renowned for the many uncommon plant and animal species that live there.
A fresh challenge
The mountains of Bucovina offer spectacular panoramas at every turn. Moreover, they give us the opportunity to challenge ourselves in numerous ways. From hiking to running, climbing to biking, you can do all of these activities in this location.
Bucovina Ultra Rocks allowed us to push our limits once again this year. The bad weather conditions were not a hindrance to reaching the finish line. We are proud of our colleagues who dared to venture out on the trails. Special congratulations go to two of our colleagues who got a place on the podium in the 48 km and 15 km races.
We look forward to next year's editions and wish to see as many of you as possible! Are you ready for your next adventure?
