If you justmissed out on the Arctic Open international Golf Tournament in late June, thereare several other sporting events to tickle your fancy. In July, Iceland plays host tothe Rey Cup, an international youth soccer competition, attracting male and femaleteams from all over Scandinavia and Britain, as well as Iceland. The event runs from21 to 25 July and is ideal family entertainment.If you want something entirely different and slightly adventurous, head toÍsafjördur town in the West Fjords for the Swamp Soccer tournament, held in thelavish valley Tungudalur. This is extremely visual and difficult, and we guaranteeyour days will be filled with laughter and excitement.Later in the summer, 21 August, the capital plays host to the Reykjavík Marathonwhen literally thousands take to streets on the morning of Culture Day. The eventregularly attracts about 3,500 entrants including more than 500 foreigners whofly in especially for the event. More experienced participants can choose betweenthe full marathon and the half marathon, while those with more fragile or inexperiencedlimbs can opt for the 3, 5 or 10 kilometer races.
