On Saturday 28 August at 15:00, the annual Top Run race, organised by MIF, gets under way. The start (75 metres above sea level) is at Effo in Kollfjarðadalur, and the route then runs uphill for the whole 9.8 kilometres up to Sornfelli. The finish is at an altitude of 680 metres.
There will be a drinks station after 6.1 km. Drinks, fruit and sweets will also be available at the finish. Kilometre markers have been put up for every km along the route. An elevation profile and a map of the route can also be found on MIF’s website. www.mif.fo Changes of clothes will be driven from Effo up to the finish, and participants will also be driven back down after the race.
The race, which is free, is divided into four categories: Women 0-39, women 40-99, men 0-39 and men 40-99. Please note that age on the day of the race applies. The top three in each category receive medals, and a certificate will also be issued to all participants who complete the race.
