Perseløpet

Perseløpet is an ideal event for athletes looking to push their limits and achieve personal milestones. With generally flat courses, it's the perfect setting for breaking personal records, with 30-40% of participants usually doing so, and some races seeing up to 70% of runners surpass their previous bests. Conveniently, there's free parking at Ås school (Eidsvolvegen 11) right by the start and finish. Athletes will tackle a loop course of 2633.8 meters, and all finishers earn medals. Live results are posted online, and participants receive complimentary photos. Those setting personal records are recognized through special lists. Situated just 45 minutes from Oslo S, the event includes a dedicated drop-off area for personal drinks and food for the half marathon and marathon. Athletes can collect their bibs through a self-service system, and all race distances are AIMS-certified and approved by the Norwegian Athletics Federation.
