Run for Peace and Palestine! The Peace Walk is an entirely charitable event, with all surplus funds and donations going to organizations that work against war and oppression. This year's proceeds will support Palestinian groups in Sweden working towards peace initiatives in Palestine, while 25% of the surplus will be allocated to the Swedish-Cuban Association for their efforts on Cuba. This year, participants can connect through Strava by joining a shared club to train together leading up to the event and motivate each other: strava.app.link/LRbkLfz0X2b The Peace Walk takes place in Museiparken, located behind Värmlands Museum. The venue offers scenic views of Sandgrundsudden with its picturesque surroundings. For children under 13 years old, there are special categories: - Mini-Peace Walk: Up to 7 years, covering a distance of 450 meters. - Peace Run for Kids: Ages 8 to 12, running at 900 meters. Adults can choose between two options: - The Peace Walk itself involves walking or running one lap around the bridge area, which is approximately 2.5 kilometers long. - For those seeking a more challenging experience, there's an option for "Full Speed for Peace," covering two laps of the same route at 5 kilometers. The event includes various activities such as food stalls and refreshments throughout the day, along with arts and crafts workshops and face painting for children to enjoy. Registration fees are structured based on age groups: - Children born in or after 2010: SEK 50 - Adults born before 2010: SEK 225 For larger group registrations of six people or more, contact us at fredsloppet.karlstad@gmail.com for special rates. Should you encounter technical issues with online payments via card, SWISH, or other methods, manual registration is available by contacting info.fredsloppet@gmail.com and following the provided instructions. For those interested in supporting the cause beyond their entry fee, donations can be made directly through a plusgiro account (947581-5) or using the mobile payment service SWISH at 123 533 33 64. Event merchandise is also available this year, featuring stylish Peace Walk t-shirts and tote bags for purchase. For more information and to register, visit fredsloppet.se/merch/.
