Islandsbanki Reykjavik Marathon takes place on August 21, 2027, and is the biggest running event in Iceland.
Participants can choose between four race distances. During registration, participants will also choose whether they want their finishing time and result to be recorded in the FRÍ results database.
If a participant chooses to have their result recorded in the FRÍ results database, FRÍ competition rules apply and the participant is eligible for awards. The recorded finishing time may also be used when registering for other competitive races where an official qualifying time is required.
If a participant chooses not to have their result recorded in the FRÍ results database, they can still participate in the race, but their result will not be recorded in the FRÍ results database and they will not be eligible for competition awards.
The race will take place on August 21, 2027.
