Description

The Sparebanken Vest relay is KnarvikMila's race for colleagues, family, friends or sports teams who want to challenge themselves with a short and intense relay together.

Each team consists of 5 runners. Create your own team with your favorite colleagues or good friends.

The relay consists of 5 short stages from approx. 300 m to approx. 1.5 km. The stages are short enough that anyone can complete a stage, but challenging enough if you want to run it as fast as possible. Because here it can really go away when the adrenaline pumps through the body, the motivation and the mood are at their best!

The start and finish are at Knarvik Stadium and all stages will have a changeover close to the stadium. It will therefore be possible to follow your team almost all the time. When you run your leg, you will never be far from a good colleague or teammate who will cheer you on until the next changeover!

Shortly after the relay, all participants gather for a joint meeting in Nordhordlandshallen. Here there will be prize distribution, light refreshments, mingling, bragging and a good atmosphere together with other runners, support staff and cheerleaders. Come as you are - slightly sweaty training clothes are the standard attire this day!

There will be prizes for the three best teams at the Sparebanken Vest relay!

Trail description:

1st leg: 900 m\ n The start will be in front of the stage at Knarvik stadium, heading south, towards Knarvik ungdomskule, into the car park and around Juvikstølen to the kindergarten and down towards Brekkeløypa for the interchange.

2nd stage: 1500 m

From the interchange and onto Brekkeløypa's western entrance, around the entire Brekkeløypa and to the interchange at the eastern exit.

3rd stage: 400 m

From the exit in Brekkeløypa, past NBK's clubhouse, up the gravel hill and behind the grandstand at Knarvik Stadium. Continue along the dirt road until you come down to Nordhordlandshallen and switch outside the hall.

4th stage: 700 m

From the switch you run past Kraftbua and follow the same loop around Juvikstølen that was used in the first stage, to switch between the entrance to the Brekkeløypa and artificial grass track.

5th stage: 300 m

This will either be a short, charming stage to the finish line or a bone-chilling sprint against your competitors. 300 flat, fast meters on asphalt and the tartan deck at the stadium, before you can cross the finish line in front of the stage and grandstand to pride, honor and the good feeling of having done something nice together with good friends and colleagues.

In total, the Sparebanken Vest relay is approx. 3,800 meters filled with excitement, drama and lots of fun together with others!
