Aluekisat 2026

Aluekisat is a series of children's running races held throughout Finland, featuring eight regional events for boys and girls. The Rovaniemi race begins at Saarenkylän urheilukenttä, offering short, child-appropriate distances of 800 metres and 1.5 km. The series complements school competitions like the Mouse Ear Races and Hese-area races. Children can compete seriously, aim to qualify for AllStars, and participate in an event designed for families, not adult road-racing participants.
