We arrived at the second great stage of recovery from the precarious competitive situation of recent weeks and months on the first weekend of August. In the last competition of the preparation period for the national adult championship, at the Budapest OPEN organized by the Budapest Athletics Association, we could see several international fields. Unfortunately, the various travel restrictions prevented the start of several, but despite this, a good number of Croatian and Slovak athletes were represented, but also a competitor from Denmark. Within the framework of this competition, the Budapest Championship was also held.
