The Alfa Run Mini Kids’ run normally takes 20-30 minutes.

Can I take part in the Alfa Run if I'm not physically fit and I don't exercise regularly?

The main aim of the event is to overcome your fears, help a friend or stranger and have fun together. So far, all participants have successfully completed the challenges of the Alfa Run, but to avoid injuries, we recommend that you do at least a minimum of exercise before the event!

Is it required to complete all obstacles on the course?

It is certainly not necessary to overcome all the obstacles, but participants are encouraged to step out of their comfort zone and face their fears. The entire course is required for the OCR Qualification and the Champion’s Challenge.

How to get a free ticket for children?

All children are free of charge if their parents have an entry ticket for any of the Alfa Run courses. Tickets for children must be purchased at www.alfarun.lt – when purchasing a ticket for yourself, choose a free ticket for your child. On the day of the event, tickets for the children’s course will be available for 15€ at the information desk.

Do children need parental permission?

For children aged 14-17, written parental permission is required.

Children aged 13 and under must be accompanied by a parent, guardian or other adult.

What documents do I need on arrival at the event?

Adults need an ID card or passport and a ticket (for children aged 14-17, plus written parental permission), while children only need a ticket. For more information: https://www.alfarun.lt/en/5-10-km-challenges/

When to come to the Alfa Run?

You will need to register before you run. Registration closes half an hour before the adult start, so we recommend arriving 1 hour before the start at least. More information: https://www.alfarun.lt/en/5-10-km-challenges/

When are the Alfa Run Mini Kids runs?

Children’s starts are organised every half hour.

What is the difference between the Alfa Hero and Champions' Challenges?

Both courses are exactly the same, but the Champions’ Challenge is timed, all obstacles must be completed (or a penalty can be chosen) and awards are given to the first three to complete the course (in the men’s and women’s groups separately).

Do you need to know how to swim?

The course includes an obstacle where you will have to jump from a height of 3 m into water and swim. If you do not know how to swim, you will be able to bypass the obstacle. However, participants are encouraged to overcome their fears as a team of volunteers will be on hand to help.

Can relatives, friends and curious people from the city come to watch the run?

Of course! The start/finish area is clearly visible to spectators. There is also good visibility of the last 10 obstacles, so you can watch, film and support everything perfectly. There is no charge for guest attendance.

Can athletes from Russia and Belarus participate?

We support the united position of the Lithuanian sports community towards the aggressor states, therefore athletes living in Russia and Belarus are not allowed to take part in the Alfa Run.
