Bergen Fjell Marathon (21,1 km)

BFM – mountain half marathon organized in Bergen is a fantastic mountain adventure!
Sweat, stones, mud and mountains – this is what you can definitely expect 🙂
This year’s edition was the 10th jubilee edition of this event and on this occasion – apart from t-shirts, medals were also distributed to everyone – lucky me!
My participation was completely devoid of competition – I know, I saw the results from previous editions and my great goal was to finish this marathon 😉

The route starts at Urliken – Montana and goes past Urliken Peak via Vidden, turning on the way to Viking Hytten, from there via Rundemannen, Blåmannen, Fløyen and ending at Skansenmyren Stadium. There are two classes of participants – turklasse and konkuransseklasse. at the halfway point in Viking hytta there was a station with water and first aid. The route was well marked, in places where the routes connected with other routes, there were volunteers helping to keep the right direction – big applause for them too! Organization at the highest level!

Big bows to all who participated and huge applause for the winners – these are real Vikings! Crazymen, made of steel! Way to go!

If you like challenges, be sure to sign up today for the next Bergen Fjell Marathon in 2024.
I know that tickets for the next edition will be sold out very soon, so you have to monitor the organizer’s website in December to buy a ticket for 2024! –
