Iceland



Why Iceland? Why not! Good food, good race and crappy weather. I arrive in August to find myself in 8°C weather, prime running conditions. As we step out of the airport the fresh air begins to hit us and within 5 minutes our eyes start adjusting to the larger horizon. So much empty space! We get our bib numbers from the stadium and carb it up before crashing at the hotel. 




Race day! My chip time was 2:05... oh well, better luck next time. Roger did it in 2:14, which was a half-hour faster than his T.O. time…props! 




We spend the rest of the week recovering at the Blue Lagoon and checking out some of the natural wonders Iceland has to offer.
