Rowers may choose to compete either in the full or half marathon distance in boats, or on a concept ergometer. 

 

The competitions are coordinated with Aalesund Marathon for Runners.

The competition for runners is arranged by the Norwegian Marathon Club, Aalesund.

 

The Start and the Finish for runners and boats will be at: Kiperviktorget  (AalesundMarket Place in the town center) 

The ergometer competition will be at: Kipervikviktorget

 

The marathon distance at sea will follow a course along two of the main islands constituting Aalesund town, taking the boats through the Aalesund channel in the town center, which will give the audience a spectacular view of the crews (see attached map).

 

Boat categories:   4+Tubs,  Gig 4,  Gig 2x and 2x Tour Boats

 

If one should wish to participate in other 2x tour types of boats, Aalesunds Rowing Club will try to arrange that, but the nature of the stretch chosen will usually not be rowable in other types of boats.
