Machine-translated from Faroese and not yet reviewed. Read the original.
On Saturday and Sunday 18 and 19 August, the senior Faroese Championships will be held at the Tórsbreyt track. There will be competition in every event except pole vault and the 10,000 m.
This year the Faroese Championships are an open competition, and FÍF hopes to see all “the regulars” as well as plenty of new faces who fancy testing their ability. The only condition for taking part is that you were born in 2003 or earlier.

New this year, there will for the first time be Faroese Championships for masters, meaning athletes born in 1988 or earlier. We have many good runners, but it is hard to get them onto the track to compete, so FÍF has decided to let masters compete in the 1,500 m and 5,000 m. The masters age groups are: 30-39, 40-49, 50-59, 60-69 and 70-79.
