On Saturday 30 January, round 3 of FÍF’s winter running series takes place, with Bragdið hosting up north in Sundalagið.
All categories start together, and the starting gun goes off at 11:00. The categories are:
Senior women and men, open category (b. -93) – 8.3 km
Veterans, women and men (b. 1955-64) – 8.3 km
Men, super veterans (b. -1954) – 8.3 km
Junior women and junior men (b. 1989-93) – 8.3 km
Girls and boys (b. 1994-98) – 3.3 km
The start and finish are at Margáir in Streymnes. The route runs from the sports hall, through Streymnes, along the lower road (Neystavegur), down onto Oyrin, to Halvík, through Hvalvík and back to Streymnes. Seniors, veterans, super veterans and juniors run the course three times; girls and boys run it once.
Although many races have been held on this route over time, this is only the third time this exact course has been run. Last year Guttorm Sørensen won in a battle with his son Jan Elmar Sørensen, and among the women Súsanna Skúlv Sørensen came first.
Registration is here on the website and must be completed by Friday evening 29 January at 23:00. It will also be possible to register from 10:00 on race day. Bib numbers will be handed out from 10:00 in the sports hall at Margáir. The fee is DKK 50 for the four oldest categories and DKK 20 for the youngest.
It will be possible to change and shower in the sports hall. Medals will be awarded to nos. 1, 2 and 3 in all categories, and there will be something refreshing to drink at the finish.
Please also refer to the race rules for the Winter Series.
Registration is open.
