The route
Adults: The race starts from Vágshøll and runs out through the village, out to Nes, up through Nes and west along the upper road (asphalt/gravel) to the farm, back down into the village, west along the road above the school and on to Bethel, then onto the main road straight west to Vágshøll. The course is 8.7 km
The biggest turnout ever for a Winter Series race on Suðuroy was in Vágur in 2016
Participants are asked to arrive at Vágshøll from 10:00. Bib numbers must be collected by 10:45 at the latest. Changing rooms and showers are available in the hall. After the race there will be refreshments and the medal presentation.
Once again this year, Hvistan is inviting everyone to Grannakaffi, which this time will be held at Meinigheitshúsið in Vágur. You can get something to eat there, and there will be an opportunity to leave a donation for Krabbameinsfelagið.
Hvistan hopes for a big turnout, as the race is also a fun run in which everyone can take part.
