Nordiska Mästarnas Backyard Ultra

Location: Fyskompaniet Träningscenter at Rattens gränd 1, Bromölla

Venue: The arena is adjacent to the entrance of Fyskompaniet. The area is asphalt; at the beginning of October we will first know whether we can hold it inside a large warehouse or outside on the asphalt in a large event tent. Start and finish will be out on the asphalt area and there is the possibility to set up your own smaller tents.

Course: The course is carefully laid out with the following surfaces to maximize the number of laps and is, so far, suitable for 81 laps. Asphalt 2530 m, Grass 152 m, Trail 1301 m, Gravel road/Agricultural road 2700 m, Wooden bridge 23 m with about 30 meters of elevation gain. Trash bins are located at about 1, 3 & 6 km. Feel free to check the route in this YouTube video www.youtube.com/watch?v=GBX3idm2zDo; however, the start will differ somewhat from the video depending on how we set the start in October; furthermore the entire course is beautifully colored by the autumn hues. The whole course is marked with fabric tape with reflectors. The course is also marked with arrows at all junctions or where uncertainty may arise.

Energy station: There will always be a well-stocked energy station with water, sports drinks, food, snacks and other things you might need to run long distances.
