5 JUN 2010: STOCKHOLM MARATHON, SWEDEN
DETAILS OF THE EVENT PASSED
Stockholm is one of the original European big city marathons. It has a scenic course through downtown Stockholm with a finish in the 1912 Olympic Stadium and is genuinely an international marathon, with 50 per cent of the runners are from countries outside of Sweden.
Stockholm is one of the most stunning capitals in the world. It is situated on 14 islands and laced by water so clean that you can swim and fish right in the heart of the city. In the early summer, the nights never get really dark. Because of it's scenic beauty it is ranked as the No 1 destination marathon in the world by "The Ultimate Guide to International Marathons".
