Starting permit and bib number: You will receive your starting permit via email a few days before the race. The bib number can be collected at the race center on race day, between 09:00-10:30. We recommend that you collect your bib number and safety pins well in advance of the start.

Important! Bring your starting permit to collect your bib number.

Warm-up: A group warm-up session will be provided at the start led by instructors from STC.

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

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

Timing: Timing is done with net time. We use an automatic timing system where all runners have a chip attached to their bib number. 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 uses "friend seeding." This means that all runners help each other to give the best conditions for the entire field to have a smooth journey from start to finish. You decide for yourself where in the starting field you should start. If you want to take it easy, stand a bit further back; if you belong to the faster part of the starting field, position yourself towards the front.

Course: The course is measured by a certified federation course measurer according to the rules established by Swedish Athletics.

Track Map: Google maps Varvetmilen Örebro and Gpx file.

After the race: All finishers receive a medal and a finisher t-shirt. Fluids are also available at the finish line.

Prizes: Prizes for places 1-3 in the women's and men's classes, award ceremony around 11:45 AM.
