    Stockholm half marathon 14 September, http://www.stockholmhalfmarathon.se/Start/index.cfm?Lan_ID=3

    Malmö half marathon 10 August, http://www.malmohalvmarathon.se/en/index.php

    Gothenburg half marathon (the world's largest race, see info below) 18 May, http://www.goteborgsvarvet.se/en/Runner/

    "The world's largest race is now GöteborgsVarvet Half Marathon. The race has had an incredible development during the last ten years, and the number of runners has been doubled. 44 093 people ran the 21 kilometers in May this year, which is about 4 000 more than in Newcastle's half marathon Bupa Great North Run, and 6 500 more than in the Chicago Marathon."

    Just a few suggestions :)
