Nederland, Groesbeek, 22-7-2010Deelnemers aan de 4daagse, vierdaagse, lopen op de derde dag, de dag van Groesbeek, o.a over de zevenheuvelenweg. Het is de zwaarste dag vanwege de heuvels en dit jaar bepaalde de regen het beeld. The International Four Day Marches Nijmegen (or Vierdaagse) is the largest marching event in the world. It is organized every year in Nijmegen mid-July as a means of promoting sport and exercise. Participants walk 30, 40 or 50 kilometers daily, and on completion, receive a royally approved medal (Vierdaagsekruis). The participants are mostly civilians, but there are also a few thousand military participants. In 2004 a restriction on the maximum number of registrations is 45,000 registrations. More than a hundred countries have been represented in the Marches over the years. Foto: Flip Franssen/Hollandse Hoogte
