PHS X Bosi Backyard 2026

PHS X Bosi Backyard is a charity backyard-style race in Bodø, Norway, held from the main canteen at Nord University around World Mental Health Day. Students at the Police University College in Bodø organize it with BOSI. The entry fee is 170 NOK, with all proceeds supporting Mental Helse Norge. Runners check in before the morning start, then complete a 12-lap format instead of a standard single distance. The event targets the blue light services: fire, paramedicine, and police, and students from Nord University are also welcome. The fastest overall runner wins by achieving the lowest total time across all 12 laps. Additionally, there's a tactical finish: the first woman and man to complete the final lap are also declared winners. This structure allows runners to choose between pushing hard each lap or conserving energy for a late surge. The day also features guests and prizes, with specific course and registration details provided closer to the event.
