Romsdal 5/10/halv/hel is a road-race series based at Stavik grendahus, with all distances starting and finishing at the community house. The standard distances are 5 km, 10 km, and half marathon, and a full marathon is included for the autumn event. The courses are officially measured, the start is common for all classes, and registration typically opens approximately one month before the race.
The 5 km and 10 km are straightforward out-and-back courses on the same road as the half marathon, with turns at 2.5 km and 5.0 km respectively. The half marathon route heads northeast and north along Fv232, turning shortly before Hustad. It is designed to be fast and relatively flat, not technical. Toilets are available at the start and finish, but participants should be aware of a local detail: no post-race drinks are provided. The age categories accommodate a wide range of participants, from unranked young runners in the 5 km to older juniors and adults in the longer races.
