**Individual Registration**
When you register, you will make the following choices:
1. Which start group you want to run in – choose your start group based on the time you think it will take you to run 10 km. Participants in the 5 km race have their own start group.
2. The size of your race shirt – participation in the race requires wearing the race shirt.
3. In which Stadium store you want to pick up your race kit* – Since the choice of pickup locations is limited, the earlier you register, the more stores you can choose from.
4. When registering, you can also choose to purchase: Medal (49 SEK), Diploma (80 SEK), Cancellation Insurance (125 SEK), Shower (60 SEK – Stockholm only).
*The race kit consists of: the race shirt, a timing chip, and a start group wristband.
You can purchase voucher via our voucher shops. You can find them here: Stockholm, Malmö, Helsinki, Göteborg.
Choose a race and then “buy voucher” in the menu.
Once your purchase is paid and completed, the voucher will be sent to your email along with the registration confirmation and a link to a downloadable PDF with the value code on it. You can then print the voucher and give it as a gift or keep it for yourself.
Please note that purchasing a voucher does not in itself constitute registration for the race. Only when the recipient has registered using the voucher is the registration for the race complete. The earlier the registration is made, the more options there are to choose from regarding starting groups and kit pickup store.
Yes, you can register and pay for multiple participants at the same time.
Here’s how to do it:

Please note: When you register multiple people at the same time, the confirmation email will only be sent to the first person in the registration. However, all the people you have registered will receive their own start certificate to their email just like usual.
