Snertloop Krimpen aan den Ijssel

About the race

The Snertloop of AV-MTK opens the year in Krimpen aan den IJssel, with start and finish at the De Boog sports hall on the Krimpenerbosweg. Runners choose between 5 kilometres, 10 kilometres or the half marathon; walkers between routes of 10, 15 or 20 kilometres. The name is meant literally: afterwards there is pea soup for every participant, with time to talk it over. That the race falls in early January gives it its character — short daylight, bare polder and a field that comes above all to start the year actively rather than to chase a time.
