Check out your next ultra!

Here’s a list of ultra running events in the Nordics with some basic data! Since we’re in Europe, we’ll be using km instead of miles 😉

Check the link to the event for more detail. If you’re on your phone, you might want to tilt your screen for better viewing.

Some races have references to UTMB Index & Stones or ITRA Points. Worth noting that Kullamannen in Sweden is the only official UTMB race in the Nordics.

Sources are: UTMB, ITRA, Lopplistan.se, ultramarathon.se, DUV, and lots and lots of Google & Youtube, Facebook and heresay 😉

There’s new stuff coming up all the time! You know about a race not showing here and want to share?

About ultrarunner.run

Hi! I’m Jacob, a fellow runner and aspiring ultra runner.

My idea for this Nordic Ultra Running Resource was born out of a bit of frustration trying to find more localized inspiration, running events and relevant gear. There’s a lot of scattered information and my ambition is to simply try and gather this here, hopefully providing a one-stop-shop for Nordic ultra runners or those interested in ultra running in our Nordic countries.

Have fun & run!

About ads and affiliate links

As we’re all aware, running and ultra running can be rather expensive at times. Participating in running events can sometimes be costly and don’t forget all the stuff we need to train and get in shape for the massive effort these runs require. The ads you see here together with some of the gear and stuff I’ve linked to will generate some humble cash to help me in my own ultra running career. Simple as that. Thought I’d be transparent about that. I’ve added some affiliations with companies I think are relevant to this site. Outnorth and Adlibris are familiar brands for most people in our Nordic countries.

You can also sponsor me directly by buying me a cop of coffee or a pizza (excellent recovery food BTW)

Have fun & run!
