On the second loop, there will be a small course change compared to previous years. Drink station moves from near the lake Sultingsträsk to lake Hynkänlampi. Unlike before, runners will now visit the second loop drink station only once, not twice. The station is 4km after previous drink station and 5km before finish. Near the old drink station, the course will be about 70m shorter than before as both bends to the drink station are left out.
The main reason of the change is a fishing competition that takes place on Sultingsträsk the same day. The location of the new drink station is very nice for spectators as there is a great view over the lake and a fire place for frying sausages. For runners, there is a toilet available. The change also increases the relative share of trails on the course which is naturally positive for a trail run.
