Roger Dahl ended fifth

- I had to look after the dogs; I could not go faster, said he. The tempo was very high and it was very hard race in every case. This year was the competition very strong, much stronger than the last year when I also contested with Tunheim, admitted Dahl. He stated that the cold weather and continual high speed during the whole race were the biggest challenges. Despite public’s expectations in his person, he is very happy with the anniversary race he has done.

- The 20^th time when I took part. And the 19^th time when I came to the end, added the Finnmarksløpet-Veteran.
