Göteborgsvarvet

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Göteborgsvarvet is an annual half marathon running competition in Gothenburg, the second-largest city in Sweden. It is the largest annual running competition in Sweden, with about 30,000 participants each year.

The race takes place in May, and has been organised annually since the 1980s. It starts outside, and finishes in, the old athletics arena Slottsskogsvallen in the Slottsskogen park. It takes off northwards over the large suspension bridge Älvsborg Bridge, follows the Göta älv river, goes through the inner city, before reaching the finish.
