Compact event

The center of the event is in Rådhusparken in Bodø, which provides a unique opportunity to carry out a compact event. The runners can walk from the city's hotels to the start, and it is a short distance to the shower in the hotel room after the finish line. Another advantage is that there will be a real folk festival in the center after the finish line. We set up a large lavvo with catering in the middle of the park and we have a mobile stage where the afternoon and evening are filled with music and other cultural elements.
