In the women's race, Olivia Lundevall from Stocksund was first to cross the finish line, with Elvira Arosell from Lidingö and Filippa Bergsman from Spårvägens FK on second and third place.

The Men's/Women's 5K races were also characterised by a large turnout of participants with both elite and recreational runners from all over Stockholm and Sweden. In the men's race, Harry McMurtrie from IFK Lidingö SOK was first over the finish line, followed by Konstantin Avramidis from IS Göta and Jason Krogh-Pedersen from Bagarmossen.
