TCS Lidingöloppet 10: run the iconic final 10 kilometres (former Pink Ribbon Race)
Welcome to the classic final 10 kilometres! This is where legends are made, the crowd erupts and every step is felt throughout your whole body. Now you can experience that very stretch – welcome to the TCS Lidingöloppet 10.
TCS Lidingöloppet 10 follows the part of the course known as "sista milen" (the final 10 kilometres), which runners have been taking on for over 60 years. Ten kilometres of genuine trail running with forest paths, hills and Sweden's most feared climb – Abborrbacken. You're not just running a race – you're running a classic.
The race is open to everyone aged 11 and up, women and men alike. Whether you're an experienced trail runner or taking your first steps in the forest, you're welcome – what matters is that you give everything you've got over the last kilometres towards Grönsta.
The Pink Ribbon Race becomes TCS Lidingöloppet 10
We're changing the name to bring all our races on Lidingö together under one brand and make the race easier for more people to find.
Here's what stays the same:
- The same course. You'll run the same 10 km on the same Lidingö trails as before
- The same great feeling. It's still a race where we run together, for each other and for the people we care about
- The same community. You'll meet the same cheerful participants, spectators and volunteers as before
Here's what gets better:
- A competitive class for men
- All our races support charity – previously, this only applied to the Pink Ribbon Race. Now, whichever race you run, you're contributing to something bigger
You, who have run with us before, are exactly what makes this race what it is. Thank you for all the years, and a warm welcome back in September 2027.
