Frequently Asked Questions

For the TEST OF STRENGTH

I still can’t participate, can I move the registration to next year or get a refund?

No Unfortunately. We get a lot of such inquiries and as starting number material and planning of the event takes place a long time in advance, we are not able to bear this cost ourselves. We recommend checking whether you can be covered by private insurance if illness is the cause, alternatively you can sell or transfer the place to someone else, or switch to a shorter distance.

Where can I find my diploma?

Go to the results list and search for yourself. On the page you get up to about yourself, there will be a pdf icon. There you can download the diploma and print it yourself.

I saw that there were photographers photographing the participants. How can I get photos from the ride?

The link to the photos taken by our official photographers along the trail can be found at the following link as soon as they are published: sportograf.com/event/9890

Here you can also register so that you will be notified when they are published, normally 2-3 days after the race. You can also look up the Strength Test on the Sportograf website

Where can I get a start number and deliver bags etc. before the start?

All practical information can be found here

When and where should I deliver my luggage (luggage) before starting in Trondheim?

Luggage can be delivered from 19-21 in the evening in Trondheim. It must be delivered on a truck that is at the start. You can also deliver your luggage on Saturday morning at the start. We like to take bike cases in the evening so they arrive first on the truck.

The bags for bag delivery must be delivered in the evening from 19-21 to the cars at the start.

When do I start and with whom?

Go to the main page of our website and click on “participants”. Here you can search by name, club/group, distance and much more. Keep an eye on this close to the start, as pools can be moved for various reasons and you may thus have received a new start time.

Where are the food stations in the Strength Test located?

Food stations – distance – opening hours

What can I eat at the food stations?

There will be different types of pre-greased baguettes, wraps, hot soup, sports drinks, juice, water, bananas and other fruit. True to tradition. You can put your own bars and gel in your bags for bag shipping, which will be sent to Oppdal, Kvam and Hamar.

Do I have to label my bags in different colours?

Mark them clearly with good contrast (for example with a waterproof marker on sports tape or labels) with the start number. We use racks that are rolled out as they are from the start to each food station. Remember the number of the rack you put your bag in for each stop. Tip! Place your bags with the same number (e.g. Fagernes 2 and Beitostølen 2, etc.) on the same shelf. Then it will be easy to find your bag at all stops.

Can we send bicycle cases as luggage?

Yes, it is possible to send bicycle cases as luggage during the Strength Test, but you must order shipping of this in the registration so that we can guarantee that we have space for these. There is an additional charge of NOK 150 for sending the bike case, and it is paid at registration.

Is it possible to use “food trucks” that put out boxes?

No, any form of accompanying vehicle is prohibited and may result in disqualification. All riders (including teams/groups) will have their needs met from our food stations. Bags of clothes are delivered to Oppdal. Ringebu and Skreia (after Gjøvik).

What should I do if I break?

– If you break, you must call the service number you are given in connection with the start number. You can get assistance to be transported to the nearest means of public transport. Therefore, always have the necessary means of payment with you so that you can buy a ticket for further transport.

I want to change the name of my start number – what do I do?

You use the link, username and password that you received when registering and go in and change it yourself. It will be registered as a sale and costs in excess of NOK 300.

Can I pick up my start number in Oslo before the start?

Yes, for the Strength Test it is possible. See more information read here

Where does the timing stop?

Timing for all distances is stopped at the exit of route 4 at Grorud.

The end of the race is in the facilities of Grorud IL at Grorud in Oslo. There you will find everything you need when you have cycled the Sterkeprøve, i.a. you will be served a small meal on arrival.

How is it with bag shipping in the race?

Everyone can send small bags/sacks of extra clothes to the food stations at Fagernes, Beitostølen, Randsverk, Lom and Sognefjellet, a total of 5 bags.

The bag freight is an addition to the normal baggage freight.
Luggage to Lærdal is transported directly by truck in Lærdal before the start on Friday evening. Bags for bag shipping are delivered at the same time, but it is important that they are kept separately.

Bag freight does not have the capacity to transport ordinary luggage, only waterproof bags of a maximum of 1.5 kg that are to be taken to the food stations.

We use a rack that is rolled out as it is from the start to this food station. Remember the number of the stand you put your bag in for each stop. Tip! Place it in the same rack at all stations and on the same shelf (e.g. Fagernes 2 and Beitostølen 2, etc.).

Baggage that you need after the finish line can be sent directly to Sogndal. Remember to mark all bags and luggage to be sent with your start number.
