Säpojoggen

The inspiration came from the 2010 wedding of Victoria, Crown Princess of Sweden, and Daniel Westling, where four bodyguards from Swedish Security Service (Säpo), dressed in suits, could be seen jogging next to the procession with the couple.

Participants are encouraged to wear dark unbuttoned suits and white shirts in the same style as the bodyguards had during the 2010 wedding procession.

[3] It is not a competitive event; the runners are supposed to keep together in a formation throughout the track and the goal is to keep the same pace and time as the actual bodyguards.

It also differs from the Stockholm event in that it is arranged as a competition,[5] and that there is no dress code; regular training clothes are worn by the attendees.

After finishing, members of public are invited to chat and ask questions about the tasks and purposes of Säpo, and how the bodyguards prepare themselves for their missions.
