We have general rules that apply to all runners. If you’re running in the competitive class, there are additional rules to consider. For those participating in Run for Fun, there are some specific rules that apply. The family run also has a few rules that are specific to that race. It's the participants responsibility to read the rules!
After crossing the finish line, you’ll have the opportunity to take great photos before leaving the finish area.
All photos from the race will be published on our Facebooksida.
At our obstacle-page you find descriptions for all obstacles, explaining what is allowed at every obstacle.
The competitive class is for those who have run OCR races before and want to collect ranking points. Here, the rules are stricter, and some obstacles are tougher.
Run for Fun is for those who want a truly fun challenge. Feel free to run together with your friends and colleagues and help each other overcome the obstacles on the course.
The start lists with start times will be released a few days before the race. The first start is at 12:00 PM, with the highest-ranked women and men in the competitive class. After that, we will release the starting groups at a few-minute intervals to avoid long queues at the obstacles.
There will be a break for about 45 minutes before the first start for Run for Fun. In Run for Fun, participants generally start in the order of registration, but some adjustments will be made so that those with the same team or company name start together.
For competition class the start times are based on ranking. You find your ranking-id here! If you have never raced a sanctioned OCR-race before, you don't have a ranking-id.
After your first sanctioned OCR-race, you will be given a ranking-id, if you are a member of a team connected to the Swedish Athletics Federation.
