Blodomloppet 2023

IES Linköping staff compete in Blodomloppet 2023

Blodomloppet Sweden is a non-profit association whose members are sports associations and blood centers. The purpose of the blood drive is to draw attention to and manifest the need for blood donation and to promote a healthy lifestyle.

The race's surplus goes back to the organizing associations' youth activities and to promoting the importance of donating blood.

In 1993, the founders said: "The blood donors of the future are among exercisers. We are starting a race and calling it Blodomloppet.”

Mr Hinds commented "It was an amazing evening. Along with almost 10,000 other participants, 16 of us represented IES Linköping and either ran 10k, ran 5k or walked 5k around the city, we were cheered on by spectators throughout the whole course."
