Digital seeding
We’re now seeing a lot of interest in getting seeded into the right start group. To give yourself the best chance to run at the right pace, we recommend that you submit your seeding as early as possible.
We are pleased to continue offering the success of digital seeding – the opportunity to qualify for the various start groups of the TCS Lidingöloppet through your own digital timing, at a place, date, and time that suits you!
About seeding races
By running a seeding race, you can place yourself in the start group for the TCS Lidingöloppet 30, 15 and Rosa Bandet – the race that best matches your pace. This way, you are guaranteed the optimal journey through the Lidingö terrain in September – with an even rhythm, just the right speed, and plenty of space between you and the other participants.
Digital seeding races ahead of the TCS Lidingöloppet
To give more participants the opportunity to seed themselves into the TCS Lidingöloppet start groups, we are giving you the chance to qualify for the TCS Lidingöloppet start groups through digital timing.
By using digital seeding with Lidingöloppet’s digital races, you can complete your seeding on any 10-kilometre course anywhere in the world, on any date from January 1 up to and including September 26. In this way, you can run your seeding race under relaxed conditions, on a day when the weather, course and your running form are optimal, and without needing to travel to an organised race event. You can also complete as many digital seeding races as you like and register the results for reseeding up to five times.
Seeding is done subject to available space into the appropriate start group. If the start group is full, you will be placed in the closest possible group.
