Helsinki Half Marathon 2014 – race report

Since I moved to Finland, I did my fair amount of races of various distances here… Some being short events like the Viikin Vitonen (5km), Helsinki Midnight Run (10km) but others being a bit longer like the Länsiväyläjuoksu (17.3km) all the way to different Halfmarathons like the Pääkaupunkijuoksu and the Rovaniemi Halfmarathon… As it goes with yearly race schedules the same races keep on coming back year after year and it is therefore very seldom that new big events pop up.
