FAROESE HALF MARATHON CHAMPIONSHIPS, 7 KM FUN RUN AND CHILDREN’S RACE –
This year Treysti is organising the Eik Half Marathon in Klaksvík. It will also be the Faroese Half Marathon Championships. It will be a so-called town half marathon, as the whole race is run inside the town, on a 7 km loop course.
As well as the half marathon, there will also be a 7 km fun run and a children’s race.
The start and finish will be outside Eik. The half marathon is run three times out to Bumshamar and north to Kósin to turn.
The fun run is one lap of this route. The children’s race is one lap around “Lítla Eið”, which is just under 700m.
The course is a DAF-approved half marathon course.
To take part you must be born in 1996 or earlier. To take part in the Faroese Championships you must be a member of a club under FÍF.
Although this is the Faroese Championships, it is also an open race where everyone can take part.
