The most important change from 2025 is the event’s emergency phone number during the race. Save the number +358 41 490 3408 in your phone as Nuuksio Classic 2026! You can call this number for first aid needs, DNF, and other problems during the race. The number is only used during the race for safety reasons, organizing evacuation, etc. If this number calls, answer the call. We will only contact you for important matters, e.g. to guide you back to the route in case we see from GPS tracking that you are off route.
Another notable change is that the sauna after the run is in the main building of the sports institute, not by the lake.
The schedule, route markings, refreshments, etc. related to the run itself are unchanged.
