Any marathons in June...in Eastern Europe?

Any options for combining soccer, booze, fast food, the odd bit of hooliganising and marathons while over in 'Pokraine' in June?
(Yes, I am discounting Estonia in the play-offs!!:eek:)

Hmmm..... Sounds like a desperate attempt to justify the trip.

I know Huskerdu was only adding to the fun but speaking as an Irish person I think it's perfectly valid to call it Soccer! I'm fecked if I'm going to be calling the other sport 'Gaelic' Football while in Ireland!!

And as for the egg chasing...well that really should never have been called Football in the first place - Such a misnomer!!
