THE DAY IS HERE!

The day is finally here. The day you’ve carried with you all winter long. You’ve seen it during long runs, heard it in your breathing through the toughest intervals, and felt it in your body when you headed out at dawn or laced up your shoes late in the evening.

Everything you’ve done has led to this moment. Every kilometer, every step, every decision to keep training despite pouring rain and headwinds. And now you’re here — at Sundstorget, in the heart of Helsingborg — ready to run through a city by the sea. You’ll feel the pulse of the crowd, the power of the water, and the sense of freedom with every new kilometer. And when you reach the seafront toward the end, a magical finish awaits, with Øresund shimmering beside our iconic finish line.

Today, you are a winner. Regardless of time. Regardless of result. Enjoy the day. Enjoy every step. Enjoy your race.

MAGICAL AFTER RUN ON THE WOODEN DECK

When you raise your hands to the sky, cross the finish line, and feel the medal land around your neck—that’s when the very best part begins. That’s when it’s time to simply enjoy.

Just a few steps past the finish line, our legendary treat table awaits, filled to the brim with goodies from our fantastic main partners, partners, and collaborators. You’ll find sports drink from Umara, Ramlösa, non-alcoholic beer from Erdinger, treats from Joluca, chips, candy, chocolate, fruit from Dole, and much, much more.

Once you’ve filled your hands (and maybe your pockets) with everything you’re craving, take a seat on the wooden deck, sink into one of our comfortable sun loungers, and let your gaze drift out over Øresund. There, in the sunshine and the buzz of thousands of happy runners, you can truly take in what you’ve just accomplished.

Enjoy the view. Enjoy the moment. Enjoy your amazing achievement.
