AUSPRÁ & Serena Slush Recovery Morning
Day 2 of Slush starts in the dark. Join AUSPRÁ and Serena for an easy run through Helsinki, a round of contrast therapy the Finnish way and a warm breakfast.
Then get to the venue with post-plunge clarity, feeling better than anyone who hit snooze.
We're capped at 50 guests so spots are very limited. Please sign up only if you know you will be there, otherwise you're taking someone else's spot.
The plan
7:45 Meet in Kamppi (exact spot shared upon registering).
7:50 Easy group run to Allas Sea Pool, about 4.5 km at conversational pace. If you're not there by 7:50, we leave without you.
8:20 Sauna and sea dip: heat, cold, repeat
9:20 Breakfast and a short talk on recovery: what’s real, what’s hype, and what your muscles know that your watch doesn’t.
10:00 Leave with a recovery care package to tackle day 2 of Slush (courtesy of our sponsors NOCCO, Vitamin Well and Jollos) and a free Allas Sea Pool swim & sauna ticket, valid for 12 months.
Who it’s for
Founders, angels, investors and operators in wellness, sport, health and consumer tech. At least those who packed their running gear. Every pace is welcome.

FAQ
Do I need to be a fast runner?
No. We run at conversational pace and regroup along the way. If you can chat while jogging for half an hour, you’re in.
Can I skip the sea dip?
Of course. Stay in the sauna, or use Allas’s heated pool. Nobody keeps score. If you have a heart condition or are pregnant, check with your doctor before any cold plunge, and feel free to skip it.
What if it’s freezing?
Then it’s a proper Finnish morning. Dress in layers for the run, and keep dry warm clothes in your bag for after. The sauna does the rest.
Where do I leave my bag?
With us at the start. We’ll drive it to the venue, where there are lockers and changing rooms.
How do I change for the conference?
The venue has changing rooms and showers, and towel rental is available.
How do I get to Slush afterwards?
The venue is next to Market Square, a short walk from Central Station, where trains run to Messukeskus.
