Landsverk is currently repairing the dome on Sornfelli, which was damaged in the storm last winter. This means that Top Run, which was due to take place on Saturday, has been postponed to Sunday at 15:00
Registration is here
Bragdið is organising the race, and they write the following on their website:
Bragdið is organising TOP RUN on Sunday 13 August at 15:00. Everyone is welcome to take part. TOP RUN is a recreational run. That means that anyone who exercises regularly can take part. Nearly everyone who has taken part in TOP RUN over the years has completed the run, so it is not an impossible task. TOP RUN is a challenge, because the course is uphill almost all the way. The run starts at the Effo station in Kollfjarðadalur (75 metres above sea level) and finishes on Sornfelli (680 metres above sea level), a distance of 9.8 km. The run is divided into four categories: * Men under 40 * Men over 40 * Women under 40 * Women over 40. The top three in each category receive medals.
The entry fee is DKK 150 with online registration. The deadline for online registration is Saturday 12 August at 22:00. Registration can also be done at the Effo station in Kollfjarðadalur from 14:00 to 14:30 on race day. The price is then DKK 200, however.
There will be something refreshing at the finish. Changes of clothes will be driven up to Sornfelli during the run and can be collected there at the finish. A bus will drive participants back down after the race.
Here is a video of the route, shortened to 1 min. and here is a feature from 3-2 about Top Run 2013
Sam Vang is the King of Sornfelli with his 10 wins. Will he be dethroned on Sunday?
