The course has 11 stations, including a start and finish line, and features a net obstacle, a pipe obstacle, a monkey bars obstacle, a tyre obstacle, a rope tower, a jump obstacle, a stone obstacle, a sack obstacle and a crawl obstacle. All these obstacles are designed to improve endurance, strength and agility, and involve climbing, running and jumping. The minimum age for the course is 8 years, and younger children must be accompanied by an adult.<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/hafnarfjordur.is\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/img_3979-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_3979\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 2048px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 2048\/1366;\" \/>\n<h4><strong>Even more power and ambition put into diverse physical activity.<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>The primary school competition, Sk\u00f3lahreysti, takes place on a competition course like the one that has now been erected at this busy spot in the centre of Hafnarfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur, with a view over Hamarskotsl\u00e6k all the way down to the harbour of Hafnarfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur. The location is near three school catchment areas and close to busy cycle and walking paths. The Health Capital of Hafnarfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur hopes that the track will be well-attended and used for both regular training by residents and friends of Hafnarfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur of all ages, and for preparation and training for competitions such as Sk\u00f3lahreysti. With this initiative, the Healthy Town aims to inject even more drive and ambition into diverse physical activity, thereby providing, for example, the municipality's primary schools with a venue for training for the School Health Challenge. Several nurseries and primary schools in Hafnarfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur are already part of the Health-Promoting Schools network with the Office of the National Commissioner, and more are preparing to join.<\/p>\n<p>Pupils in Hafnarfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur's primary schools, like pupils in other primary schools across the country, have taken part in Sk\u00f3lahreysti, a team competition between schools, and have done so with great success. There has therefore been a great demand among young people in Hafnarfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur for access to an obstacle course so they can train in the right environment.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>A smaller fitness trail is located at Skar\u00f0shl\u00ed\u00f0arsk\u00f3li.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>N\u00fd hreystibraut hefur veri\u00f0 sett upp \u00e1 H\u00f6r\u00f0uv\u00f6llum og er brautin, sem hefur veri\u00f0 a\u00f0 byggjast upp jafnt og \u00fe\u00e9tt s\u00ed\u00f0ustu daga og vikur, n\u00fa tilb\u00fain fyrir hvers kyns \u00e6fingar og keppni. \u00cd brautinni eru 11 st\u00f6\u00f0var a\u00f0 me\u00f0t\u00f6ldu r\u00e1smarki og endamarki og m\u00e1 \u00fear finna netturn, r\u00f6ra\u00feraut, apastiga, dekkja\u00feraut, ka\u00f0alturn, sippu\u00feraut, steina\u00feraut, sekkja\u00feraut og [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":17768,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_breakdance_hide_in_design_set":false,"_breakdance_tags":"","wds_primary_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[12],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-14389","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-frettir"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/hafnarfjordur.is\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14389","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/hafnarfjordur.is\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/hafnarfjordur.is\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hafnarfjordur.is\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hafnarfjordur.is\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=14389"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/hafnarfjordur.is\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14389\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hafnarfjordur.is\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/17768"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/hafnarfjordur.is\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=14389"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hafnarfjordur.is\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=14389"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hafnarfjordur.is\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=14389"}],"curies":[{"name":"WordPress","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
