The NN Kids Runs 1 km starts in waves A to E and the NN Kids Runs 2.5 km in A and B. Use the entrance to the starting area (shown on the bib number) as indicated on the map. The letter corresponds to the signs at the start. Make sure you are in the starting area at least 15 minutes in advance.

After the finish, we ask you to continue walking to where you will receive your medal and drinks.

The exits after the finish line of the NN Kids Runs are divided into two colors and shapes that correspond to the colors on the bib numbers and wristbands. Parents and chaperones can wait for the children at the correct exit. Participants who registered individually should use the exit marked with the sun. Participants from schools and clubs should use the exit marked with the house. Use these landmarks to find each other after the finish.
