The best marathons and runs

While the Ethiopian world champion Haile Gebrselassie has endorsed The Great Fjord Run in Bergen, Jimmy Vika has more runs on his hot list.

“Running makes you open your senses and enhances the experience of nature. In addition, you can discover places that you don’t have access to from a car or a bus, and you can cover different areas and attractions in a short amount of time, ” Jimmy says.

Local running enthusiasts organize numerous running events as diverse and exotic as nature itself. Several runs take you through natural terrain.

Many of the marathons and runs listed below also offer children’s trails, cultural events and a lot of fun, and most have shorter distances for grown-ups who want to take it easy.
