Due to the regular traffic flow on the Øresund Bridge, there is a necessary time limit of three hours to complete the race.

We reserve the right to withdraw participants from the race if it becomes clear that they cannot meet the time limit.

This corresponds to a pace of approximately 8 minutes and 30 seconds per kilometer. A bus will follow the field and pick up participants who are unable to meet the time limit.

The first time limit is at the first hydration station before the tunnel. Here, runners have 27 minutes to complete the first approximately 3.2 km.

It is not possible to participate with ambitions to walk through the tunnel and over the bridge.

Similarly, equipment such as jogging strollers and hand bicycles are not allowed, as they are not permitted on the bridge.

The Bridge Run will take place on Sunday, June 15, 2025, starting at 10:00 am.

The Bridge Run is 21,097 meters long, equivalent to a half marathon. It will not be possible to participate on other distances on this day.

The weather can always affect a running experience, regardless of the precautions you take before the race. Fortunately, the Bridge Run takes place on June 15th, with a better chance of good running weather.

However, as the course runs between two countries through a tunnel and over a long bridge, the weather can have a particular impact on the safety of The Bridge Run. This includes conditions such as wind, heat, and other weather conditions on a bridge far above sea level.

The organizers will always act responsibly and prioritize the safety of the participants first by operating according to the recommendations and instructions of the authorities in each country in relation to the execution of the race.

When The Bridge Run crosses the border from Denmark to Sweden, local weather conditions in the start or finish area and on the Øresund Bridge may therefore also affect the ability to send participants on their way.

The organizers follow the weather forecasts closely leading up to the race and will inform the participants along the way if weather conditions require reservations for the execution of the race itself.

Yes. There will be a total of five hydration and energy stations along the course. Also on the Øresund Bridge.

Yes. There will be toilets for participants at all five energy and hydration stations. Therefore also on the Øresund Bridge.

There 40,000 participants signed up for The Bridge Run 2025.

To ensure the best possible experience for participants both before, during, and after the race.

The proportions of The Bridge Run and the special circumstances surrounding the route and organization impose significant demands on both logistics and safety.

The careful assessment is that 40,000 participants is the maximum capacity to provide participants with a safe and well-organized running experience within the timeframe with permission to close parts of an important transport route between Sweden and Denmark.

The start is in Tårnby, Denmark. The finish area will be in Sibbarp close to Malmö, Sweden.

More information will come.

When organizing running events, achieving complete carbon neutrality is very challenging. However, we strive to optimize in alle possible areas. Responsibility for climate, nature and the environment is a central and crucial focus for both the organizers, MAI, Sparta and Øresundsbron. We seek the best possible solutions available in aspects such as logistics and in choice of materials and suppliers.

We will work on specific focus areas and for a range of United Nations’ Social Development Goals, although all the details have not been finalized yet. It is a given fact that we strive to minimize the use of plastic and engage in responsible sorting and recycling of waste. Additionally, a key focus is ensuring no footprint is left on the island Peberholm and on taking good care of the sea Øresund.

We aim to adhere to national and international standards, incorporating sustainability into all processes and implementing initiatives wherever possible. Leading up to June 2025, we will share more information about the initiatives we plan to undertake within the chosen focus areas.

From our experience with other races, items like backpacks and medals hold a significant value for the participants. For The Bridge Run, we have chosen to provide participants with a medal and a high-quality backpack instead of a t-shirt.

In both the year 2000 and 2010, participants received backpacks that were well-received by the majority, and we still see those bags in the cityscape. We intend to produce a high-quality backpack, ensuring that a large majority of participants are pleased with it and will tend to use it for many years to come.

We are focused on the production process to ensure the highest level of responsibility. We also offer participants the option to opt-out of receiving the backpack during registration and thereby allow each participant to make their own choice to limit their carbon footprint.

The purpose of The Bridge Run 2025 is not to make money. Any potential surplus will be split 50/50 between Sparta Atletik & Løb and Malmö Allmänna Idrottsförening (MAI) and will be used to create the best conditions for children, youth, and elite athletes to engage in athletics and running.

There are no current plans to hold more bridge runs across Øresund, and we cannot guarantee that it will be an event that returns. The Bridge Run 2025 is a unique opportunity to cross the border between Denmark and Sweden on foot.
