The Fossánes Run takes place on Sunday

Machine-translated from Faroese and not yet reviewed. Read the original.

Once again this year, Treysti will organise a running race at Fossánes. This year the race will be held on Sunday 19 July. This is the 11th time Treysti has organised a summer running race up north in Sund. Turnout has always been good up north, so Treysti hopes it will be good again this time. The race is organised in the same way as last year, up north on Fossávegur (the road to the school at Fossánes).

The routes, distances and age groups will be the same as last year. The races start at 16:00 with the youngest groups. Girls and boys will race separately. When one group has finished, the next group will be sent off. Races will be held in the following order and groups:

16:00
Girls & Boys born 2009 or later 400m
Girls & Boys born 2007-2008 400m
Girls & Boys born 2005-2006 600m
Girls & Boys born 2003-2004 600m
Girls & Boys born 1999-2002 800m

16:30
Women & Men born 1970-1998 2.4 km
Women & Men veterans born 1960-1969 2.4 km
Women & Men super-veterans born 1959 or earlier 2.4 km

Medals, sponsored by Fossábúðin, will be awarded to places 1, 2 and 3 in all groups.

Registration
Registration takes place on site between 15:00 and 16:00. The start and finish will be down on the road to the school at Fossánes.
