Description
Each year, as Iceland shakes off the last remnants of winter, runners gather for the Reykjavik Spring Marathon, a celebration of resilience and renewal. This event offers both a marathon and a half marathon, guiding participants through the most picturesque parts of Reykjavik. The course winds through the scenic Elliðaárdalur Valley, along the tranquil paths of the Fossvogur Valley, and skirts the serene coastline, providing a flat and fast route ideal for personal bests or leisurely enjoyment.
Organized by the Marathon Runners Association (Félag maraþonhlaupara – FM), this race has a history spanning over 26 years, embodying the grassroots running culture of Iceland. Post-race, participants are welcomed with warm waffles topped with cream and jam, fostering a friendly and communal atmosphere that leaves a lasting impression.
