The Tom Waits Run

The Tom Waits Run

Tom Waits-løpet (Eng. the Tom Waits Run), is a traditional Oslo, Norway pub crawl. It is held every spring at the beginning of May. The first known run was held in 1999. Traditionally, the run was held on the same date as the "Grete Waitz Run", a fun run for women only. Since the Grete Waitz run was discontinued, the Tom Waits Run has been held on the same day as the world's largest road relay, Holmenkollstafetten.
