On Saturday 28 June, Hvistan is organising a running race and a fun run as part of Jóansøka in Vágur. This is also round 4 of the Summer Grand Prix 2014. The Smyril ferry sails from Tórshavn to Vágur at 10:00. The children start at 12:30, and the adults run at 13:00. This means it is possible to travel there and back on the same day for the race.

The Grand Prix age groups are as follows:
• Women open group (born 1998 or earlier), i.e. 16 years or older
• Men open group (born 1998 or earlier), i.e. 16 years or older
• Women (K45+) veterans (born 1959–1968), i.e. 46–55 years
• Men (M45+) veterans (born 1959–1968), i.e. 46–55 years
• Women (K55+) super veterans (born 1958 or earlier), i.e. 56 years or older
• Men (M55+) super veterans (born 1958 or earlier), i.e. 56 years or older
