Introduction to running in Sweden

During the warm part of the year, Sweden is a runners dream. Almost all outdoor tracks are free to use and open to the public unless booked for an event or meet. Thanks to ”Allemansrätten” (wiki:Freedom_to_roam) there are almost infinite miles of trails and country roads to run.

During winter, snow and darkness can make it a lot harder. Swedes are well prepared for the snow and a lot of sidewalks and bike paths will be cleared well enough for running on. Most of the bigger cities have indoor track arenas.

Snowy and has not been plowed but still useable if you run slowly and with icebugs:)

Great considering the snowfall last night! The bike path by the park is even better.

New gravel on the track! Still a bit bumpy but a lot better than it was before. Only a few patches..

This old track can't handle rain at all. The inside lanes get flooded very easily.
