“Tidinn rennur sem streymur i á”. Time flows like the current of a river, says an ancient Faroese proverb. These are ancient words from an equally ancient floating land, from an archipelago that has always defied the northern borders of Europe and the World. 18 islands that formally depend on Denmark, but have been, are, and will continue to be linked to the icy water flows of the Atlantic Ocean and the Norwegian Sea. Here, where everything becomes sublime, the Átjan Wild Islands race takes shape: not just a trail race, but a full-scale festival dedicated to the atavistic relationship between human movement and pristine natural beauty. Between September 6th and 10th we will witness an experiential journey, where running will become the pretext for admiring a remote earthly paradise, sharing ecstasy and fatigue, and celebrating the desire for adventure in all its forms. “Tidinn rennur sem streymur i á”. Time flows like the current of a river, says an ancient Faroese proverb. But in September, bodies and legs will flow in the archaic as well as the vibrant and contemporary Nordic archipelago. And we will portray these moments.
