Olavstafetten is a relay race held annually on May 1 in Trondheim, Trøndelag. It focuses on teams, with categories for young boys and girls, senior men and women, workplace teams, students, mixed open teams, and families or friends. The Lille Olavstafetten offers a shorter, more informal option, allowing family groups to compete together.
The event provides a course map, though specific street-by-street details of the route are not available. The participant list indicates a diverse local field, including NFIF club teams, corporate teams, non-federation teams, student teams, mixed teams, and children’s age groups starting from around six years old. In the family-and-friends class, Olsen family 1 finished first in 5:17.4, followed by Team Taftasundet 1 in 5:53.2, illustrating the brief and quick nature of the Lille Olavstafetten.
