The 5th year in a row took place on Saturday, August 24, 2019, just like last year in a beautiful natural environment - around the Uhliská Farm in Trenčianske Závada.

Participants had a choice of two competition categories. The 6.5-kilometer-long circuit with more than 30 obstacles has traditionally been given the name Cukrík . If you wanted to repeat the circuit twice without a break, you chose the Rottweiler category with a length of 12 kilometers and about 60 obstacles. "The idea to organize these races arose during the boom of obstacle races. We wanted to create something of our own, where people will be taken care of and where we will be one big family. It would not be possible to prepare such an event without the help of volunteers. We also thank all the partners who are already saying that they want to help us, " said one of the organizers Oliver Vavro, who, together with Miroslav Dolinaj and Dominik Prný, is the author and driving force of the entire implementation team of the popular race.

Everyone who managed the challenging track and successfully reached the finish line received a commemorative medal from the organizers along with a T-shirt and backpack. However, Champion.Race also has a different dimension than the sporting, net proceeds from the event, together with voluntary contributions, will be redistributed by the organizers among selected socially and economically disadvantaged families.

The organizer of the most difficult race on Považie is CHamPIoN CLUB from Dubnice nad Váhom . The event was also held with the financial support of the Trenčín self-governing region, which was represented at the start of the race in the form of its own team.
