Address: Knektaparken, 553 21 Jönköping.

Start permit and bib number: Your start permit will be sent to you via email a few days before the race. Bib numbers can be collected at the race center on the race day, between 09:00-10:30. We recommend that you collect your bib and safety pins well in advance of the start.

Important! Bring your start permit to collect your bib.

Shower & changing & toilet: Toilets are available in the area. Please come dressed, with limited shower and changing facilities.

Food & drink: A simple café is available on site.

Bag storage: We provide free storage for your bag and valuables during the race. The storage area is staffed, but we still want to draw your attention that you leave your belongings at your own risk.

Warm-up: A group warm-up is available at the start led by instructors from STC.

Water stations: Water stations are available at 5 km and at the finish line.

Timing: In Varvetmilen, timing is done with net time. We use an automatic timing system where all runners have a chip attached to their bib. The official time is the net time from the start line to the finish line, so you don't need to jostle for a good position at the start.

Seeding/Starting group: Varvetmilen applies "friend seeding". This means that all runners help each other to provide the best conditions for the entire field to have a smooth journey from start to finish. You decide where in the starting field you should start. If you want to take it a little easier, stand a bit further back; if you belong to the faster part of the starting field, position yourself towards the front.

Track: Varvetmilen Jönköping is measured by a certified federation track measurer according to the rules established by Swedish Athletics. A link to the course map will be provided soon.
