The day is finally here. The day you’ve been looking forward to, maybe counting down to and thinking about many times. Today it’s your turn to run the Cheap Energy Kids Run!

Maybe you’ve tried running fast in the schoolyard, raced your friends or simply been looking forward to standing on the start line and feeling those butterflies in your stomach. And now you’re here – ready to head out on the course right in the heart of Helsingborg.

You’ll feel the joy from the crowd, the cheers along the way and that amazing feeling when your legs just run on their own. Every step brings you closer to the finish line, where a fantastic ending awaits and you get to cross the line like a true hero.

Today you are a winner. No matter how fast you run. No matter how you do it. Enjoy the day! Enjoy every step! And most of all – have lots of fun!

FESTLIGHEDERNE FORTSÆTTER PÅ GRØNINGEN

When you’ve crossed the finish line, the day is far from over. Our friends at SP Chark will treat all the kids who ran to a hot dog.

Then even more fun awaits at Gröningen. Take a walk around, enjoy the atmosphere and experience everything happening around you. At our friends at Cheap Energy, there will be plenty of action with popcorn, face painting and fun competitions.

The day has only just begun!

Here’s everything you need to know ahead of Race Day and this year’s Helsingborg Marathon, HOKA Helsingborg Half Marathon and Lydinge Resort Relay.

Before the race…

Here are a few things that are good to keep in mind before the race.

• Have you received your race confirmation? It will be sent to the email address you provided during registration, about a week before the race. Haven’t received it? Get in touch with us at hello@hbgm.se and we’ll sort it out!
• Want to change distance? No problem – send us an email at hello@hbgm.se and we’ll take care of it!
• Don’t forget to pick up your race bib and race kit at Dunkers Kulturhus before the race.
• Plan how you’ll get to the start at Fria Bad – in our FAQ you’ll find tips on parking and the easiest ways to get there.
• And most importantly… start practicing a really awesome finish line pose!

Before & during the race…

Here are a few useful things to keep in mind from just before the start to the finish line.

• Attach your race bib to your chest – it must be clearly visible (and not folded) so that timing and photos work properly.
• Arrive in good time at the start at Fria Bad so you have time to use the restroom (available both by the beach and at Gröningen), tie your shoes properly and soak up the great atmosphere.
• Get ready and feel free to warm up together with Filborna Arena – perfect for getting your body going!
• Make sure you start at the correct time depending on your distance. Not running? Then your job is to cheer on all your friends!
• Take your place in the starting area and get ready…
• When the race starts – enjoy it! This is your day.
• Run, smile and have fun all the way to the finish line at Gröningen!

After the race…

Now it’s time to celebrate! Enjoy your achievement, the joy in the finish area and maybe even a dip in the Øresund.

• Raise your hands in the air and proudly receive your medal!
• Pick up your goodie bag filled with treats from our partners.
• Stop by SP Chark at Gröningen and enjoy a well-earned hot dog.
• Celebrate with family and friends – and don’t miss the tent at our main partner Cheap Energy Kids Run, where lots of fun and activities await.
