Heiderun Ede

Heiderun Ede starts and finishes on the former Maurits and Friso barracks grounds near Ede-Wageningen station. It is a running event in Ede, Gelderland, held during Heideweek, with races for children and adults from short kidsruns up to a half marathon. The adult choices are 6 km, 12 km, and 21 km, while the children’s races are 700 metres and 1,400 metres. The course goes over the Edese heath and through local nature, including a stretch the organizers describe as a part of Ede many runners may not have noticed before. Athletics Club Climax organizes the event, and the old barracks setting gives the start and finish a more distinctive feel than a standard town-centre race.
