The blood circulation is arranged in 18 locations around the country and aims for participants to travel a distance of five or ten kilometers to draw attention to blood donation and to promote a healthy lifestyle.

- Of course you miss running in the city with people around, but we have decided that this will be a group activity in any case, says participant China Friberg, who has donated blood 49 times.
