Morning Jogging
Meeting Point: conference venue Harpa
Please note that jogging is not organised by the association this year.
Feel free to meet other EELA runners in front of Harpa and enjoy beautiful sceneries, great running paths, and plenty of fresh air—running in Iceland’s capital is definitely a treat. In many cities, parks serve as the main running areas. This is not the case with Reykjavík, as its parks simply aren’t big enough for longer runs. Rather, most of the best and scenic paths can be found near the coastline, both on the north and south side of the city. For example, you can run from the centre of town along the coast on the south of Reykjavík, around Elliðaárdalur in the east part, and then over to the north side of Reykjavík along the ocean—well over 20 kilometres—only crossing the road once!
