Stockholm Half Marathon is an annual half marathon arranged in Stockholm, Sweden. It is held in the beginning of September, and so is not connected with Stockholm Marathon directly. Up until 2007 the race was called S:t Eriksloppet (S:t Erik's Race, S:t Erik is the official saint of Stockholm).
The DN Stockholm Half Marathon is run on an inspiring and easy course through many inner city areas of Stockholm; Norrmalm, Vasastan, Kungsholmen, the Old Town and Södermalm. Start and finish is just outside the Royal Palace. During the race you will pass many of Stockholm’s most famous landmarks and buildings; Karlberg’s Castle, the City Hall, the Royal Palace, the Swedish Parliament and the Royal Opera House.
The difference between the highest and the lowest point of the course is 27 meters. This course is perfect to improve your best half marathon time. This is an easy course for first time half marathon runners.
