Kansalliset 2026

The Kansalliset listing covers national-level competitions, including Keuruu's Midsummer Games. This track and field event takes place at Keuruun keskusurheilukenttä in Keuruu near Midsummer. Keuruun Kisailijat organizes the meet, which features standard athletics events: 100m, 400m, 800m, and 3000m races for men and women, alongside the 3000m steeplechase, high jump, pole vault, long jump, shot put, and discus. This event is held on a stadium track and field, not as a point-to-point road race. Pole vault is an invitation-only event, separate from the others which use standard registration and athlete confirmation. The Keuruu club's national competition records also extend to biathlon, ski-shooting sprint races, open regional championships, and biathlon school events, indicating a scope beyond just this summer athletics meeting. A local tradition of "Kisatytöt," assistants named by the club, is also maintained on the Midsummer Games page.
