Bohinj came alive again this year with the 23rd edition of the traditional Four Brave Men’s Run, which delighted both the youngest and adult running enthusiasts. In cooperation with Bohinj Tourism and volunteers from the Avgust Gašperin Stara Fužina Sports Association, a varied and dynamic program was prepared, attracting numerous participants and visitors to the heart of the Julian Alps.
Saturday was marked by the children’s B.O.FEjST, which included a variety of activities for children of all ages. The day began with a family hike along the northern shore of Lake Bohinj, which ended with an exciting return trip on a panoramic boat, while students from the Dr. Janez Mencinger Elementary School participated in interesting activities near the event venue.
Numerous games and animations were available: bungee trampoline, inflatable toys, fishing, stilt walking, archery, hoop throwing, badminton, football, štrbunk, creative workshops, face painting, animation with Andreja Zupančič and the fun cow mascot Fejstka.
The highlight of the day was the children’s run, in which almost 500 children participated. Younger runners up to 5th grade received medals, and all participants also received a peaked cap as a nice souvenir of a day full of movement and joy. The catering service was provided by the Guesthouse Danica.
On Sunday, the main running event followed, with 184 runners registering, 42 of whom
for the longer, 20-kilometer trail. Primož Piškur and Tamara Grm from Bohinj took first place on the trail, while Manca Mikelj, Simon Klemenčič, Matej Repinc and Peter Krivc also achieved very good results.
