Norgesløpet

Norgesløpet is a road running event in Jessheim, held at Jessheim Stadium on an October Sunday. Participants can choose between 5 km and 10 km distances. The 5 km race begins in the late morning, with the 10 km starting around midday. The 5 km event is also known as Ida Eides Minneløp. The event includes a children’s race, entertainment for kids, and childcare services for participating adults. The course consists of two 5 km loops, meaning 10 km runners complete the loop twice, allowing spectators multiple views of the participants. The current route is flatter, features fewer turns, and is designed for increased speed and traffic safety. The day's activities begin before the races with children’s entertainment, and Fantorangen from NRK Superbussen is scheduled to appear as part of the family program. While event listings may mention longer distances like marathons and 50 km, the primary focus of the event information is on the 5 km, 10 km, and children’s races in Jessheim.
