RunFest is a relaxed sports event for corporations and other groups, where teams run, jog or walk a 5 x 4,2 km relay and enjoy a picnic together on a summer night. RunFest is about smiling, cheering, teaming up, getting active, dancing, having fun - enjoying oneself.

Route description:

The RunFest relay is not a competition, but simply the sporty part of a relaxed event. The 5 x 4,2 km teams can be either male, female or mixed. There are no categories.

The relay team consists of (a maximum of) five people. Each team member runs and/or walks a minimum of 4,2 km. Running or walking a longer distance, even the full half marathon, is of course allowed. The main idea is that the relay baton travels 5 x 4,2 km, and each team member completes at least one lap. The timing stops at the team captain crossing the finish line. The time will thus be for the whole team, but split times are also available.

The total distance in RunFest is 21 km, a half marathon.

The RunFest relay is not a competition, but all participants are winners despite age, size or physical ability!

Starts from 6 pm onwards.

The course is a flat and easy park route.

RunFest is a charity themed event.

Upon payment of your registration, you are able to name a charity for which you wish your team's charity sum to be donated to. RunFest donates a minimum of 1 € for each kilometer your team runs/jogs/walks (5 x 4.2 km). In addition, each charity uses RunFest in their own fundraising in different ways. RunFest encourages partner corporations to add charity elements to their participation. It is also possible to donate directly to the charities (see more in the presentation of each organisation).
