"Designed for adventure-seekers, this Northern Iceland race explores one of Earth's geological hot spots - you'll run along the rim of two volcanic craters and over black lava rock, with steaming geysers taking your mind off the miles ahead."
"A 13.1-mile route through Napa and Sonoma's wine country, this course is surrounded by farms, vineyards, and ranches - yes, there are gently rolling hills, but it's not an overly challenging course."
"At the post-race wine festival, top local vineyards reward you with wine tastings, and your goodie bag includes a commemorative wine glass."
"Our resident Iceland expert and contributing writer Erika Owen highly recommends one of the tour lodging options, Fosshotel Glacier Lagoon, saying that it embodies the best of Iceland: seclusion, surrounding nature, and beds topped with Icelandic wool blankets."
The Northern Iceland race is designed for adventure-seekers, featuring a route along volcanic craters and lava rock.
