KnarvikMila 3km

Description

KnarvikMila is known for its classic distances of 21km, 10km and 5km, but from 2023 we will also introduce the well-known 3km or 3000m that many people know from school, the military or sports.

3km is both a pleasant and manageable distance for the inexperienced runners, while at the same time it is a demanding challenge for the more well-trained who want to run really fast.

The advantage of testing out 3 km at KnarvikMila is that you do it on one of the flattest and fastest tracks you will find in Western Norway. We can almost guarantee that you will achieve one of your fastest 3000m ever – whatever your form or ambition! This will be a good running experience on a fast and easy track!

3 km is open to everyone from 10 years of age with separate 2-year classes for youth, senior classes and 5-year classes for veterans. There will be cash prizes for the top 3 in the women's and men's classes in all three races!

🚗

All participants are entered into the draw for a wide range of other small and large prizes, including a Toyota from Eknes Karosseri AS available in a year's time in the main prize!

The course is car-free. In the finish area you get a medal, water and banana. Here you will also find the Red Cross tent if you need assistance and a separate area where you can mingle with other runners.
