Yesterday Hvistan hosted the seventh and penultimate round of the Betri Winter Series (VK7). Around 40 participants took part. Conditions for running were actually quite good, even though the organisers and participants got a bit of a fright a few hours before the start. It had snowed quite heavily early in the morning and there was snow along the whole route, but by the time the race was due to start the sun had done its bit, so there was no snow on the route itself while the race was run.
The winners of the open categories were Eirikur Hansen of Bragdið and Margreth Augustinussen of Hvistan. All the results can be seen below, and photos taken by Kamilla G. Sørensen can be found here: Betri VK-7 in Vágur 2018
