Runtur

The runtur is an Icelandic tradition. In ^{13 25} Reykjavík it takes the form of an extended pub crawl taking place on Friday and Saturday nights, from about 11p.m. until 3a.m. However, in Akureyri, the runtur takes a different form. It is a tradition which is carried out by Icelandic teenagers and involves them getting into their cars and driving in a small loop around the city centre at around 5 miles an hour. There really is nothing to do there.
