The 2008/09 Winter Series kicks off on 15 November 2008, when the traditional Runt Agnið race is run. Last year’s Winter Series was marked by poor conditions. As well as competing against old rivals, the clock and themselves, the runners also had to battle cold, snow, ice, gales, storms and, on one occasion, even flooding.

But the Island Games are coming up next summer, and to toughen up and motivate the runners, we are going for it again. This time, however, we are changing the overall competition and going back to the points system that has previously been used for the Winter Series. The categories are: girls, boys, junior women & junior men, women, men, women’s & men’s veterans and men’s super-veterans.

The races will be the same as last year:

Round 1 – 15 Nov. Runt Agnid 10.3 km (5 km)
Round 2 – 06 Dec. Tórshavn 12 km (3.5 km)
Round 3 – 24 Jan. Hvalvík/Streymnes 8 km (3 km)
Round 4 – 21 Feb. Hvannasund 10 km (4 km)
Round 5 – 28 Mar. Runavík 10 km (5 km)

The programme, points system, age categories and other rules relating to the Winter Series can be found on the main page under “rules”. The rules will be posted in the next few days.
