Närpes Funrunners invites you to Josiprundon – a fun and playful event for everyone, regardless of age or pace! Choose between two routes: 2.3 km or 5 km. It’s not about being the fastest – walk, run, jog, dance or cycle your way around. You decide how you want to complete the route! Along the way, you’ll find several fun activity stops and challenges. Answer quiz questions, solve puzzles and test your knowledge of Lasse and Anders’ songs. At each stop, collect a stamp on your “josiplott” – and who knows, you might learn something new along the way! Everyone who takes part and hands in their “josiplott” will be entered into a small prize draw. The winners will be drawn by Anders Teir at Närpes Market Square at around 8:45 pm. Gather your family, friends or the whole gang and join Josiprundon – a route filled with movement, challenges and fun!
