The longest day of the year in Estonia is June 20th or 21st, depending on the year. The sun usually sets just before 11 pm and rises at 4 am, so there's 5 hours of night. However, it never really sets, it sort of hovers just below the horizon, so the sky is always somewhat illuminated. Hence, the tentative date for the Run is going to be Saturday, June 19 to Monday, June 21st.
This is still tentative, because the Run is still tentative. I need to pass the medical exam and I need to do a 50 km test run. Once those two milestones have been completed, the dates will be confirmed and an earnest preparation can begin.
Also, the exact schedule and the precise route are still in the works, but it will be an early morning start.
