On Saturday morning at 11:00 the starting gun will go for round 4 of the Grand Prix for adults in Tvøroyri. The re-founded club on Suðuroy, Hvistan, is organising the race together with FÍF. As usual, a children’s race in the usual age groups will also be run afterwards.
The meeting point is Tvøroyrar Skúli, where bib numbers can be collected from 10:00. There will also be changing rooms and showers available after the race.
Smyril does not arrive in Tvøroyri until 12:00, so those planning to go to Suðuroy to run will have to travel south on Friday evening. The race cannot be moved to 13:00, as it would then disrupt the festive procession. Hopefully some runners from the north will still come and support Hvistan’s race.

For the past few Jóansøka festivals in Vágur, the race has been run around Vatnið. This year there will be a Grand Prix race in Tvøroyri. This photo is from the start last year.
Registration is not ready yet, but should be ready by Monday evening.
