Sørlandstesten offers runners in Kristiansand, Agder, a late-year opportunity to assess their fitness without a large event. The race includes 5 km and 10 km distances, along with a children's race preceding the adult events.
It is designed for beginners, experienced runners, and all levels in between. Participants include those training for a larger goal, individuals curious about competitive racing, and those seeking an active social day. Specialized attire and prior race history are unnecessary; start lists and results are made public after each running.
