Midnattsloppet (Swedish for "The Midnight Run") is a running competition organised in Stockholm, Gothenburg and Malmö in Sweden, as well as Helsinki in Finland, by Midnattsloppet Nordic AB, a daughter company of Hammarby IF.
For children and youths, the Lilla midnattsloppet ("little midnight run") is held at 20:00 on the same evening.

Two runners died during the run: A 26-year-old collapsed upon reaching the goal near Zinkendamms IP.
The start and the goal were at Södra vägen at the southwestern corner of Heden, and the track ran through the city's central districts.
