Guðrún Dögg Rúnarsdóttir
MISS ICELAND 2009
Guðrún Dögg Rúnarsdóttir, Miss Iceland of 2009, was born in the small town of Akranes in Western Iceland in February of 1991. She is 19 years of age and has two sisters and three brothers. Growing up she was involved in gymnastics, swimming and figure skating.
At around the age of fourteen, she began work as a model and soon after placed second runner up in a Ford Agency modeling contest in Iceland.

A few years later at the age of eighteen Guðrún was invited to compete in Miss Vesturland (Miss Western Iceland and placed second in the pageant. It was as a result of this placing that she progressed to the Miss Iceland contest and her being named as Miss Iceland.

After winning the Miss Iceland pageant Guðrún says her whole life changed. She was selected to go to South Africa for six weeks competing in the Miss World pageant in November 2009, which she describes as a life changing experience, seeing a different part of the world and experiencing so many things that would not have been possible without the Miss World Pageant opportunity.
Guðrún still lives in Akranes and is returning to school this fall. During the summer she is working at a care home for the elderly in Akranes.
