ATEA Kalmarmilen 2026

Atea Kalmarmilen is a 10K race held in Kalmar, Sweden. The start is at Teatervallen, and the finish is at Larmtorget in the city center. It welcomes recreational runners, beginners, club runners, and elite athletes, meaning the field can range from first-time 10K participants to those competing for top positions. The race is organized by Högby IF, is part of the I Run Kalmar race series, and also functions as the East Swedish District Championship and Veterans Championship. The course offers a concise route through Kalmar, leading participants past Kalmar Castle, Stensö, Gamla stan, the harbor, Fredrikskans, Lindö, and Ängö before heading back toward Kvarnholmen. The final stretch proceeds down Storgatan, lined with spectators for the approach to the finish at Larmtorget. The same day features Lilla Atea Kalmarmilen, a children's race for ages 2 to 13, adding another dimension to the event beyond the main 10K.
