De Knikker Zegerplasloop

The Knikker Zegerplasloop is a series of three running races held in November, January and February around the beautiful locations of Zegerplas in Alphen aan den Rijn. The races offer running distances of 5, 10, 15 and 20 km, as well as special youth distances of 400 and 1,000 metres on the athletics track. There are also walking distances of 5 and 10 km, starting at the same time as the 20 km running race. The start and finish are always on the AAV'36 athletics track, where changing rooms, showers and a canteen are also available. The race features official timing and a nearly traffic-free course through the Zegersloot area and around Zegerplas.

There is a 2-hour time limit for the walking distances. There is a drinks station on the track for participants in the 15 and 20 km races on their second lap. A free massage is available afterwards in the AAV'36 massage room (bring your own towel).
