Held since 1951, it is the oldest sports event in Croatia and honors the tragically deceased athlete Boris Hanžeković. Neither war nor politics, nor financial problems, nor the Covid-19 epidemic have stood in its way for 70 years. Even today, when the sporting world is more uncertain than ever, athletics continue to live on the coasts of the Sava river. The 70th edition of the Hanžeković Memorial will be held under this year’s competition slogan “Serbus Hanžek moj”. Through all those years, the popular Hanžek became a symbol of Zagreb.
