Jaama Run

Jaama Run is a trail running event in Kontiolahti, Finland, built around the fast Kontionpolut trail network. It runs on a June weekend and offers 5 km, 12 km, and 24 km races, plus a 1 km Mini-Jaama for children and guardians. The main distances are open to adults and young runners, and the shorter options are meant to be approachable for people trying a trail race for the first time. Most of the running routes use Kontionpolut, while Mini-Jaama stays by the stadium. The children’s start is free, every Mini-Jaama participant gets a small prize, and there are Mini-Jaama options both on foot and by bike. Cyclists also get a bigger weekend through the linked Tour de Karelianpolut event. Kontiolahti Urheilijat organizes the race.
