Optional Tours
February 6th (or other days)
Running with the locals
|
"Fram" running group is a small but very active running group in the upper areas of Reykjavík. The group runs together throughout the year 4 times a week. During the winter they try to find empty paths or streets, but sometimes have to wade through snow and wetness. During the summer, they mostly run off-road and even go on longer trips along fun routes into the highlands of Iceland.
After the run in February, it's good to have hot coffee and donuts - and the running group will invite you for coffee after the run. The plan is to run for 60 - 90 min. |
